The knotwork design is interesting close-up, but also merges into larger geometric patterns when seen flying from a distance. The kite is a wonderful flier and the twin swallowtails provide both stability and visual interest. The design is screen-printed by hand with acid dyes in two colors, black and red, on a white background. The Celtic Variations Delta is produced in a limited series of 100 pieces.
Subtle differences appear in the overall pattern between the small, medium, and larger kites.
The design style features hummingbirds, Iris blossoms, and other spring images from Eric and Anne's garden on the shore of Lake Erie. The design is screen-printed by hand with acid dyes in two colors, black and purple, on a white background. The color scheme was inspired by Amish quilts, and the hexagons result from playing with home-made kaleidoscopes. The Celestial Gardens Delta is a wonderful soaring kite which is light on the line and very stable. Production will be limited to 100 pieces.
