Greetings!
For those of them that are familiar with my works, you all have seen my version of the Independents Flag on the t-shirts that I sell.

About two weeks ago, I printed up some more of the TG Freight Hoodies. I now have a few requests to put the Independents Flag on a Hoodie. The main problem is that I have printed this design on a few different colors of shirts and it really only looks good on the one I am currently using and they don't make a Hoodie in that color. So, I have been digging around for just the right color of blank to put this on and finally came up with a pretty good match. It is a bit more grayish brown than the reddish brown pictured above.

As of today, I'm looking at three confirmed orders which will put the cost at about $39 each. A bit stiff if you ask me. I would like to know if there is any interest by anyone else. I need about a dozen orders to drop the cost to $30 each. Shipping would be about $6 in the US. Right now, my supplier has the blanks on sale but only in sizes XL and 2XL. Since the blanks are so pricey (even on sale!) I am only going to do special orders on these but need to get the blanks ordered by 10/18/06.

Oh, I suppose I should mention that they are an 11 ounce heavyweight 100% cotton hoodie with a front pocket pouch. If there is enough interest I can post a picture of the blank hoodie for a color reference.

Post a reply here or head on over to my website and drop me an e-mail there.

THANKS!

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Definitely interested.

Ok, so it looks like this is a go. I have a few folks paid up and a few emails that say "I'm in". Time to put your cashy money where it will get you one of these fancible Hoodies.

I have posted a picture of the hoodie color that these will be printed on at my website - http://www.bluemoonstuff.com/Firefly_Serenity/independentsflag.html and they do have a few LARGE sizes available now so I'm tossing that size into the mix as well.

I have also opened up the pre-ordering for sizes LARGE, XL and 2XL. Quantities of the blanks from my supplier have dropped to half of what they were since Friday. I am going to push up the date to Monday when I'll stop taking orders to ensure that I am able to meet demand and get my blanks.

Those of you that have paid already, THANKS! Your order is locked in and I should be shipping the printed hoodies by Monday 10/23/06.

I'd be interested if I had the coin. I may need to wait a few months until I gain employment.

Otherwise, I'm in one hundred percent!

Today is a happy day! I just received the blanks in for the Independents Flag Hoodies. For those of them that have their orders in, I am hoping to get at the printing tomorrow (sat.) or first thing on Monday morning. I've been running about two days behind this week but this project is a priority (cause I want one for my ownself!) so if I can't squeeze it in Saturday it gets put to the front of the line on Monday.

I promised to be shipping on Monday and GORRAMIT, I'm shippin' on Monday! If you have purchased from me before you know I like to ship my goods out faster than a Reaver on crack and exlax. (that don't paint a pretty picture does it?)

Thanks again to all those who pre-ordered and for those who were unable to get in on this...... I was able to get a few extra blanks in Medium, Large, XL and 2XL so I might just be tossing them on the website if you ask all pretty an such.

I said I would ship on Monday (10/23) and I shipped ALL of the orders on Monday. Of course, nothing else got done around here but I printed all the hoodies and shipped as promised. Someday's I amaze my own self at how much work I can get done when I don't sit at the computer for hours on end.

I don't think my local customers will appreiciate the fact that I spent the entire day printing these but hey, I'm a Browncoat. I'm cold. Now I'm warm!

Thanks again to all who pre-ordered. You should be seeing your fancible new hoodie in the next few days. Until then, here is a pic of what's coming.

Thanks Hero! This project did fall together pretty quick. Us Browncoats seem to be able to mobilize and pounce when needed.

I haven't had mine off my body for more than a few hours since I put it on. Take it off when I sleep, wash it once in a while but that's it. I think I may have some issues here with separation anxiety cause I'm gettin' the shivers just thinkin' 'bout throwing this thing in the wash tomorrow.

Oh, wait, them shivers are coming from knowing that this hoodie is so darn warm and it's so darn cold outside!

Glad you're enjoyin' it.

Yep. I'd buy one if you have them in women's size - I'm a medium.

Oops! I guess I'm too late. I went to your website and it looked like these were special ordered and closed. Is that right?

Yup, this was a real quick special order thing. The reason was that my supplier had the blank hoodies on sale - darn near half the original price. As it turns out, it also was a clearence price because they have discontinued this color. Damn shame too, because the color combinations are GREAT together. I checked last week and he did have a few reamining in stock but only one or two sizes and at about $10 more than the sale price I bought them at.

I was able to snag a few extra blanks the first time around but I have them slated for another project which is still being worked on. If I can't get that one going by next week I'll probably find a different color for it and do another printing of the Independents Flag. I only have one or two in each size Large thru 2XL so one of these might be too big for your taste. I'll see if my supplier still has any remaing in the smaller sizes.

I would take a large in a hoodie because you can wear them over your other clothes. The brown ones were really nice looking. LMK if you can get it.
Thanks for response.

I'm givin' this thread a little BUMP because I have three of these remaining. I was going to put them into some package deals but I won't have the time for a few more weeks.

I have one each in Large, XL and 2XL. If you are interested, head to the website and send me an e-mail with "Independents Hoodie" in the SUBJECT line. I'll do a 1st come 1st serve on this since I only have one of each. Prices are the same as the first time around - $30.
