More Aprons

Below are some new aprons that I have hand designed (closeup image of the design next to each one). On the lighter ones I have hand drawn the pattern in in fabric pigment ink and then either dyed the apron in tea or turmeric. the tea gives is a various shades of light brown/tan and the turmeric gives the fabric light shades varying between yellow and red. On the black ones I have both hand designed and block printed with my own patterns. Some of the black ones below have metallic fabric ink on them. (All items are machine washable and dryer safe)

Some of these will be on sale at my shop and the others will be sold at the Detroit Artists Market (DAM) for the Holiday Show. Prices range from $35 (black) to $50 (light). If you have any requests or custom orders, please contact me at ritagpatel@gmail.com.
