Random Announcements

not sure where to post this as its more of a story i want to share then an announcement.
A story only denim lovers will understand

in thousands upon thousand meters of fabrics [shirting] that's woven for me
from this mill [in Japan] this has only happened once.

this is what happened:

A phone call from japan asking me if a brake in one of the rolls is going to be a problem [eg. a 100m will consist of two length of fabric instead of one]

my answer was no but was curious to know why and it was due to a "slub" in the fabric. In the world of fine shirting/suiting this is coincided a fault. to us denim heads, a thing of beauty

i immediately asked "HAVE YOU CUT THE FABRIC YET!"
he answered no so i asked for the slub to be cut out with 1.5 meter of fabric either side.
as i was to make a shirt for myself with this piece of fabric. this slub was cut strategically so it sits on my left shoulder, even though no one would ever notice it i wear it proudly like a badge

I was thinking of veneering it, scribbling on each piece and and sending it as printed papers….............  Thanks, I'll be online every day..................

[Beatle]

LOL, I would prefer this in one piece, due to senility I wouldn't be able to put it back together…

[Giles]

Could you keep you quiet for weeks, this is getting more apealling by the second…............

[Beatle]

hehe..being senile I would eventually forget what I was doing with those pieces - and I´d be right back blabbering on an on…

wish the jets behaved with a bit more class, but it is what it is

maybe this  find will soften the blow
