overdue update

things have been crazy in life and Interwoven world lately, but like all times harried in my world, i am loving each bit and looking forward to some new developments.

news:

new shirts! designs are finalized and i've included a new organic cotton manufacturer into the fold (apparel pun!), which should both create a new option for look and open up a wider color palate.

i'm truly stoked about the upcoming shirts and can't wait to share them!

also of note: Interwoven Threads will soon be available at Gifted Hands in Crown Center. Gifted Hands is a phenomenally inspirational organization devoted to educating and empowering girls on the topic of domestic violence and abuse. each sale of Interwoven Threads creates a donation of 40% to Gifted Hands! so, it's a new way to do better with your T-shirt purchases, as well as another way to buy should you have some sort of eCommerce allergy. the store is right next to Halls on the second floor.

new Web site coming! easier to buy, learn about donation options and hopefully more scalable to future growth!

i spoke to an amazing group of homeless advocates the other day (thank you, MAACLink), to share the Interwoven Threads story and will be meeting with the group again next month. as i told the group before i began yammering away, i was intimidated by the reach and work they do in the Kansas City community. it was refreshing to hear how much is going on and the breadth of resources available in this community.

also, Interwoven was featured alongside good friend and collaborator Barlcay Martin in Urban Times this week. check it out online by downloading the arts and entertainment PDF, page four.

more soon. if you haven't grabbed the current designs, now's the time to stock up on short sleeves. not to be a downer, but a couple of the designs are going to go away once they sell out...so grabb'em while i gott'em.
