WORK OF ART COATS BY AVALON SKIES JACKET ARTIST. high school with custom picture and 3 patches each sleeve is $1,900 on average. fraternity jackets $2,500 on average.

***copying your personal photograph, INCLUDES THREE SPECIALIZED ARTISTS WORKING ON YOUR DESIGN. this process is $600 per custom picture on the back. we suggest only one custom picture to fill the space, leave the other sports for your sleeves. we can not accept blurry pictures, WE CAN NOT CREATE WHAT WE CAN NOT SEE. this works best with one picture ON YOUR COAT TO FILL UP THE SPACE ON THE BACK OF YOUR JACKET. this also works best with close up pictures, if your copying your picture, you want to be able to see your facial features, running from far away is not too good of a picture to pick out. tall skinny objects do not look the best in the space on the jacket because you will have empty space on each side. cropping the picture at the hips works best, because the design will now be big enough to take up the space on the jacket, and it will be big enough to show facial features, and details you can not see from far away. this is a jacket that people will be looking at up close, and a memento for the rest of your life. piCTURES FROM far away on the football field do not show detail; HOWEVER YOU MAY USE THOSE PICTURES, BUT IT IS NOT OUR FIRST CHOICE SELECTION FOR A CUSTOM PICTURE. if the PICTURE was captured by the event photographer, please purchase the original, and EMAIL that picture. that will work best, because it was zoomed in and clear.

INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLY FOR WAIT LIST. if you were refered by someone, and saw their coat in person please state the details in the inquiry email.

• YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT COLORS YOU WANT IN YOUR JACKET FOR YOUR COLOR SCHEME.  PICK 2-3 COLORS OR A PICTURE OF ANOTHER JACKET WOULD BE HELPFUL.  OR DESCRIBE, "I NEED A ROYAL BLUE AND GOLD", OR A FOREST GREEN, GREY, AND WHITE.   2-3 COLORS FOR YOUR COLOR SCHEME OF JACKET. (NOT THE LOGOS, UNLIMITED COLOR IN NORMAL EMBROIDERED LOGOS, 2-3 COLOR IN CHENILLE LOGOS)

• YOU NEED YOUR LOGOS OF EACH DESIGN YOU WOULD WANT ON THE JACKET.  ANY PICTURES, CLIP ART OR SKETCHES YOU CAN EMAIL AHEAD OF TIME.  LOTS OF DETAIL, MEANS LOTS OF TIME ON THE EMBROIDERY MACHINE.  TIME IS MONEY. EMBROIDERY IS PER STITCH COVERAGE ON THE EMBROIDERY MACHINE. THE MORE STITCHES, THE MORE TIME IT TAKES THE EMBROIDERY MACHINE TO STITCH IT OUT. THE MORE "CRAZY" YOUR PICTURES ARE WITH TINY LINES EVERYWHERE, THE HIGHER IN PRICE IT WILL BE.  PRICING IS NOT PER COLOR IN EMBROIDERY, PRICING IN EMBROIDERY IS HIGHER BY FINE LINES AND SMALL OBJECTS EVERYWHERE IN THE DESIGN.  THE SMALLER THE OBJECTS, THE MORE TIME ON THE MACHINE. (BY EXAMPLE, A LARGE CLIPART LOOKING OBJECT WOULD BE MUCH LESS STITCHES VERSUS A HUGE ELABORATE EAGLE WITH TONS OF FEATHERS, WHERE EVERY FEATHER WAS DRAWN WITH LINES IN THE MIDDLE OF EVERY FEATHER, ALONG WITH DETAIL OF THE FEATHER DIRECTION ON EACH SIDE OF EACH FEATHER. THE NEEDLE FOR EMBROIDERY HAS TO PENETRATE TWICE. ONCE ON EACH SIDE OF THE LINE TO DRAW JUST THE MIDDLE LINE OF THE FEATHER, BETTER KNOWN AS A SATIN STITCH. THEN IT HAS TO DO THE SAME THING ON EACH SIDE OF THE FEATHERS TO DRAW THE FEATHERS…..THIS IS MY BEST EXPLAINATION OF EMBROIDERY COVERAGE. SO YOU GET AN IDEA. THE MORE TINY LINES YOU SEE, THE NEEDLE HAS TO PENETRATE TWICE TO GO ON EACH SIDE OF THE LINE. MOST OF THE AMAZING DESIGNS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BACK OF THE JACKET, IT TAKES 2-4 HOURS OF CONTINUOUSLY ACTIVE STITCHING ON THE EMBROIDERY MACHINE JUST TO EMBROIDER THAT DESIGN. AND TO CREATE THAT DESIGN, AS MANY AS 16 HOURS OF CONTINUOUS TRACING WAS INVOLVED. EVERY LITTLE LINE NEEDED TO BE TRACED IN THE EMBROIDERY SOFTWARE. TRACING WHAT THE ORIGINAL ARTIST DREW, JUST TO CREATE THESE WORKS OF ART.
