#graduation sash

Hi, soon-to-be grads! I’m working on designs for fabric to be used on sablay, graduation malong/sash used by some Philippines schools. I still have to get the test swatch to make sure the design looks good on fabric (the little heart watermark won’t be on the final product).

Here is a a video on how sablay are used. Like tassles, they are moved to the other side once you are officially graduated.

Hopefully the fabric will be proofed by June. If you are graduating then and are interested in getting some fabric to make your own sablay/malong, please let me know (reblog, message, etc)  what color you would like (school colors would probably the norm), so then I can proof the fabric in time to allow it to be sold on Spoonflower. If you’re graduating later in the year, I might be able to sew up the malong for you and sell on Etsy. 

Please signal boost.

PS I’ll probably put up a video on how to make your own sablay without sewing, so even if you don’t buy my fabric, you can have a bit of our culture on you when you graduate.

PPS Mabuhay and congrats! You’re so close to the finish line! Believe ako sa’yo!
