Morning,
I speak to Kev today about the basic shirt and the list of options (and associated costs). TeeDee is right. It would be good to get the basic shirt right rather than scare ourselves with the myriad possible ways we could bling the shirt However it is useful to have a discussion about the shirt and what should or could be on it - this leads to inclusion of things that we need to have but have been initially overlooked - such as hood drawstrings.
For me the basic shirt is just that. Basic. Body, arms, hood (with drawstring and neck closure) and a pocket of some sort. Its important to get this just right then ensure we have an agreed list of realistic extras......although I still fancy one that has a hot chocolate making option
I would also like to manage people's expectations on this in terms of getting it done. I'd rather not rush it and get it right. Not put too much pressure on the seamstress (when she has other work in the pipeline to deliver already) and see quality suffer. Not that Kev would ever let this. But I am afraid it will all take longer than everyone expects. SO please be patient we will all try our best to keep momentum up and get the first batch out as soon a possible. Agreement and a greenlight as to the Mk2 prototype will be the next step, agreement and pricing on a finite list of options will need to be next....then the first 10 can pay deposits and get measured
