It’s always a lot more difficult to design a new design than one might think. Certainly a lot more difficult that I ever think. We started the winter shirt in August so that I’d be way ahead on the design, for once.
Update: of course I didn’t get the design completed before the winter started. Just barely late. First run expected from the printer in mid-January. We’re getting too many options:
- Hoodys in men’s and women’s one color each
- Long sleeve thermal in men’s and women’s one color each
- Short sleeve in men’s and women’s two colors each
Timeline in reverse:
December 20 | I have to do laundry soon so I hope these shirts are back from the printer quickly. We have enough designs that I’ll be able to avoid laundry for another month or so.
December 18 | We’ve finalized eight designs in all, in men’s and women’s, and hoodys, long sleeve, and short sleeve. Many colors. We’re waiting on quotes from the printer and answers to a few fabric questions. We’re – meaning I’m – so picky.
December 3 | The winter t-shirt design for Ride Studio Cafe is complete. Going to print tomorrow. I’m liking it.
August 14, 2012 | Spent about 3-minutes on a new set of Ride Studio Cafe T-shirt designs. Mmmm.
