A Year From Now...

Iowa City's own Pefff Prints . ~ . ~ . ~ . ~ . ~ Shanghai

Here's a nice switch on the all too common norm.  When Martin came to Shanghai recently on business, he brought something that was "Made in America", and left it here in China, with me.  Pefff Prints.  Thank you, Jay!  最近マーティンは短い主張で上海に行ったので、アメリカで作ったのものを持ってきました。息子と言うジェイはアートを作ってので、自分の会社はペーフプリントスです。

I now have four new Pefff dresses, each is uniquely printed in some creative way, and all have custom sewn revisions to the original American Apparel designed shirt-dress.  I like my sleeves shorter, and am experimenting with different hem lengths to find a "me-uniform" that works with tights or not.   Megan does the sewing, and the hems and sleeves look awesome!  I enjoy wearing combed cotton, but don't like the way T-shirts fit me.  These shirt-dresses are scoop neck and very comfortable.  And its not giving up anything for comfort, because Jay's print designs are lovely, and feel special to wear.   息子と言うジェイは作ったのドレスについて話し事です。メカンと言うジェイのガールフレンドは縫うことをしたので、ジェイは全部以外と思います。衣類はきれいなので、気持ちが良いと思います。

 We went out for dinner, and decided to make it a Pefff night.  Of course, I would wear one of my new dresses, Jonah would wear his Pefff Sploshion shirt that Jay made this summer, but what would Martin wear?  Well, Jonah found a favorite Vintage Pefff that Jay made back before American Apparel came on the scene, and the print is still beautiful.　　土曜日の夜に皆はペーフのプリントスのものを着るつもりだので、ジョナは夏からシャツを着たので、マーティンにビンテージペーフを貸します。

It's hard to choose a favorite, but I especially like my "All-over Magic Smoke" on the peach colored dress.  The ink is a mildly metalic pewter.  I think it's very special.　私は一番好きなペーフは選びにくいだけど、ピーチのドレスはしろめ色のインクを使いました。きれいと思います。

Jay makes various kinds of art.  Custom T-shirts, album cover art for small bands are some of his specialties.  ジェイはいろいろアートを作ってので、小さいバンドのために、シャツを作ることは専門です。    PEFFF PRINTS

Action Pefff _ _ _Ann Arbor and Iowa City

Jay, our artist son, came to visit before Monica and Jonah left for camp.  While walking around Ann Arbor, each wearing one of Jay's Pefff Print shirt or dress, we found a good place for a "Jumping Shoot", which Jay has now edited, back in Iowa City, where he is working on his many projects, including his PEFFF PRINTS for what could be your Favorite Shirt.

Here's just one set from:   Pefff A2 JUMPING SHOOT

Click on the link above, and you'll see Jay, Megan, Jonah and Monica Jumping for Pefff.  

And here's the dress Jay made for me!  I really like it and decided to get several more in different colors and designs.  I'm glad I ordered an XL, because American Apparel clothes that Jay uses as a canvas for his art, do encounter shrinkage.  Just FYI.

 

 I love my pretty Pefff dresss.             Pefff Prints

 

 

Departures... Ann Arbor

So, Monica left yesterday, Jonah left today.  Jay and Megan leave tomorrow.  I have a couple more weeks to get everything done, till I have to go back to Shanghai.  (With a cool stop in Tokyo on the way.)  So, time for the next phase.  そして、昨日、モニカは出たので、今日ジョナも出ました。所で、日本に行ったので、前の学校に一ヶ月のカンプに手伝います。明日、他のの息子も出ます。私はアメリカにいるの二週間だけがあるので、上海に戻します。途中に日本に行って、楽しみにしています。あれから、次の間に入れます。 Everyone is wearing Jay's shirts.  皆はジェイのシャツを着ています。     Pefff Prints

Jonah - Monica - Jay - Megan.  Relaxing in downtown A2.

Goodbye Jonah.  Have a great experience as a counselor at ASIJ Summer Day Camp.  今日さよならジョナを言ったので、がんばって。とてもいい経験をできたら、うれしい。
