    :2thumbsup: woo! How much $ would you be willing to part with for one? Is $80 too much? They are all double stitched and super sturdy. I am going to sell them at an art gallery where I live so I will only be getting 1/2 of that price personally...wish I could just make stuff and not have to think about the rest!

    They are super easy to make! Message me your addy and I can send you a pattern. It's just one piece replicated 12 times. Then you can sell you own and have $ :sunny: Mine are flippin out of the shop at $70

    If you think about it $70 for a days work is reasonable. It takes me a full day to take apart the clothes and reimagine them. Everything is double stitched. The buttons and beads are sewn on by hand. I wish I was a trust fund kid and could sell my stuff for $20. I have a child to feed. I can tell you how to make your own though. Then it's free ;)
