We are proud to announce that Peter Himmelman has authorized us to sell apparel embroidered with his artwork (yes, this is legit - Peter gets a percentage). We offer a variety of items: t-shirts, golf shirts, berber fleece pullovers, denim jackets, varsity jackets and t-shirt dresses, but if there's something you'd like that isn't mentioned here, like denim or chamois shirts, feel free to ask. Our suppliers carry a wide variety of apparel and we'll do our best to try to accomodate you.

Our embroideries are stitched with premium European embroidery thread that retains its color and sheen through repeated washings. All items are embroidered to order so you can have the design you want as well as the color, style and size of the apparel item that you select. If you want your item personalized with a name or phrase, we will be happy to add up to two lines of text (15 letters & spaces per line) for an additional $5 per item.

We have rendered two of Peter's drawings as embroideries and they are both available on all of our items. The finished designs are ~4" wide by 4" high and are stitched over the left breast.

'That Purple Guy' (our version)	Peter's original artwork (I think we did a pretty good job)

"Oh, that guy" is how Peter referred to this graphic when we told him which piece of art we had embroidered. The original design was  screenprinted in large format on t-shirts for Peter's spring '99 tour and is still available at the Himmelfans web site.

The finished embroidery has over 13,000 stitches and ten colors. Peter likes it. Lisa at Six Degrees Records (Peter's record label) likes it. We like it and we're pretty sure that you'll like it as well.

For those of you who prefer something a little more understated, we took a line drawing Peter did (I believe that it's something of a self-portrait) and executed it in embroidery. The colors shown here are for demonstration purposes only - if you want an item with this design, we will gladly stitch out the design and lettering in any colors you wish. We stock about 150 thread colors so we should be able to come up with something you like.
