Auction alert!

As you might have noticed, I almost never auction off any of my work any more. It’s not that I don’t love you all, it’s just that something has to really bug me about an item before I will gamble away my hard work. Auctions are indeed gambling; the market is fickle and sometimes brutal.

So what may you wonder is bugging me about this? (and notice the new backdrop?)

It was one of those pre-sewn Dharma Trading veils, my last one … ever. They sell them as 3 yards but once washed well (as they should be), they are at least 4 inches shorter in length.

I much prefer to choose how a veil will be hemmed and what quality of silk is being used in my work, so I am going to be passing on the convenience of these. Lots of people seem to like them; they are just not me. I’m told that I’m more than just a little bit fussy.

So if you’re of a smaller stature or dance in close quarters and like very light 5 momme, there’s probably a deal in there for you. Shipping is free until the end of the month; that’s a deal in itself, especially for my international clients.

Ah yes … I almost forgot. The eBay store is right here : http://stores.ebay.ca/Shibori-Borealis
