About this Product
Ever wish you could be as comfortable as a baby in a romper? Now you can! This one-piece jumpsuit, romper, bib overalls is so versatile--you can wear it as pants with the loose elastic cuffs or unbutton the 5 buttons at the bottom to change it into a dress.
Cotton and linen in chartreuse, turquoise, green, brown, and smattering of gold. Size L
I wore mine on an 11-hour flight with no problems. I didn't feel bound at the waist from pants, and I unbuttoned when heading to the toilet, so nothing touched the floor. And because I use many color variations, I had multiple tops to wear underneath, both long and short sleeves.
I machine wash these in hot water before and after dyeing to remove the excess dye, and it barely wrinkles. I suggest washing in warm or cold water and hanging to dry. I iron them to sell, but I don't think it's necessary.
This jumper is size large and is very roomy. I went down 2 sizes because I'm short--5'2"--and I wanted it to hit above my ankles, and I still had plenty of room.
Ice dyeing is unique because the dye colors separate and other colors magically appear. Photos do not do it justice. I have added one close-up so you might see more details.
Because so many people requested this outfit at shows after seeing me wearing it, I have dyed several more sizes and colors. Check out my other listings or PM me for special requests.
Patt711
Meet the Maker
My name is Patt, spelled with 2 t's because I like to stand out from the many Patricias and Pats in this world.
Creating new, colorful art suits my multi-tasking lifestyle.
Born in San Francisco and raised on the Peninsula, I found knitting, then weaving as "indoor sports" after moving to the coast and experiencing summer’s heavy coastal fog.
Vivid colors and textures drive my work as a textile designer. I consider myself eclectic — I knit, weave, felt, dye, and design and create jewelry. My passion is blending colors and textures into jewelry and textile designs while not following rules and doing the expected. I strive for wearable art pieces - my works are one of a kind. I create unusual pieces and prefer being ahead of the crowd rather than part of it.
Ice-dyeing led me to dye textiles for fashion designers. My work has sold in stores and at craft shows 4 to 5 times a year. I love the in-person selling, but like many artists, the pandemic forced me online, which has been a bonus because now I have new customers from all over the country.
I started online as Patt711 on Etsy and success encouraged me to add GoImagine.com with its new give-back concept. If you live in or visit the SF Bay Area around Thanksgiving, I also participate in Open Studios in November and that information can be found on our website: www.colonyofcoastsideartists.com
I hope you enjoy my art as much as I do creating it.
How it’s Made
All ice-dyed pieces are individually hand-dyed by me as the artist. I usually choose 4-6 colors and even when I dye several items in one container, no two look alike. Ice dyeing takes at least 24 hours and because I'm using ice not hot water, the colors in the dye separate and create new colors as well as blending with neighboring colors. They resemble watercolors.All ice-dyed pieces are individually hand-dyed by me as the artist. I usually choose 4-6 colors and even when I dye several items in one container, no two look alike.
