I am extremely pleased to announce that the Created in Birmingham t-shirts and tote bags are now on sale! The items sport a fantastic design – a map of Birmingham’s wards created by Kate Parry. All profits made from the items will be donated to Acorns Children’s Hospice, a charity based in Birmingham that proved popular with you, the readers.

cibtThe  items have been lovingly hand screenprinted by Kay Stanley at Cut Out Shop, in her WM based studio. She has used waterbased inks which don’t harm the environment printed onto EarthPostive tees and tote bags.

The t-shirts cost £15.00 and the totes cost £8.00. We have printed a limited edition run of only 50 t-shirts and 50 tote bags, and each item is individually numbered.

I wanted to take some swish pictures of the items being modeled, but have decided to let you do that for me! When you receive your tee or tote through the post, take a quick snap of you modeling it and pop it up on flickr, tagging it ‘CiBT’. Huge thanks to Kay Stanley and Kate Parry for all the help and support.

    Were there any large shirts? I’d have bought one but there aren’t any left, if they ever existed at all. Ah well.

    Hey Rob. Looks like Cut Out Shop’s website had a temporary glitch with that, it seems that you can buy large tees now! Thanks, Kate

    …but not Extra-large. (It’s all muscle!)

    Hmmm, what kind of large are we talking here, could we maybe have a chest size guide to the shirts? – as I have shirts from medium to Extra Large which all seem to fit me. Sizing seems all over the place these days?
