Product code: Stained Glass order Rainbow Ordinary Time Special Event Clergy Stole

The rainbow was a sign given to us by God when God made the promise to never again destroy humanity by flood. Over the years, the rainbow has come to symbolize hope, diversity, and equal love for all. Whether you plan to symbolize the traditional divine covenant, the modern symbol of equality, or just love pretty colors - this is a great option for you! What makes this stole very special is how it was made - this is a special face fabric which I designed and printed in-house - you will NOT find another anywhere else. I printed this using a photo-real high definition professional printer on specialty fabric. The image used is from a beautiful stained glass window. I have made stoles like this out of individually colored fabric, but to do so would cost 5 times as much (which is why rainbow stoles are so expensive).

You have a choice of fabrics for the front of the stole:

Polyester Sateen blend - This fabric is thin and has a slight sheen and a silky feel. It is somewhat more difficult to work with for me, and it rejects some of the dye. The result is very beautiful, but just slightly lighter pigmentation than with the twill.

Cotton Twill blend - This fabric is more robust and thicker. The weave is visible upon close inspection. The cotton order fibers take the dye very well and the result is bright and bold color. The pigment takes a bit longer to set, and some dye transfer is possible but very unlikely under normal use.

Percale cotton - This fabric is smooth without a sheen. Because it is natural, the colors are bright and impressive. Has a similar feel to a men's dress shirt. Beautiful fabric for this piece.

The reverse side of the stole is a Navy stretch twill fabric. There is a stiff fusible interfacing to add dimension and help the stole lay flat on the body. There is a mid weight interfacing that helps to give the stole a clean and flat appearance when worn. You can iron the stole. Spot clean with water.

The exact measurements of the stole can be taken upon request, but it is a normal length stole appropriate length for those 5'5" through about 6', more or less depending on personal preference. This stole length could be altered if necessary (The dress form length in the image is the equivalent to someone who is about 5'7") but it would change the color variation if it is shortened. There are no denominational markings or symbols on the stole. The stole is rounded behind the neck to ensure a comfortable fit.

The width of the stole varies from about 3.5-4" wide near the neck and 4.75-5.5 inches wide at the bottom. The dress form in the image represents a male with a 40" bust/chest measurements - the broadness of your shoulders will effect the appearance of the width of the stole when worn.

I am an ordained minister by trade - I am not a professional tailor, seamstress, etc. Every stole I make will have minute imperfections, and it will retain the feel of an organic hand-made item.

All proceeds help to fund my seminary education and the various ministries in which I am involved.
