Looking forward to it, though I still can't wait for Theta Phi Alpha's future print!!

I was wondering when this was happening. They'd projected a release in late Feb.

I was just talking to a friend about this, wondering when the prints would be coming out. I'm assuming they mean 4pm Eastern time?

I kind of wish our sheaf stood out more in the AOII print, but hey, they included it!
ETA: Did they misspell "Soeurs" on the Phi Mu print?

All of them left me feeling only so-so. I don't really mind the Pi Phi print, and will probably buy a scarf, but it's only ehh (although it could have been so, so, so much worse -- ugh, there are some really horrible angel-themed things out there). I do like that the background blue (which is more sky than silver, unfortunately) is made up of arrows and our letters.
I like AOII & SK best, all the others are only so-so, and none are as bad as DZ or Theta (in my opinion).

I thought the AOII rocked and the SK is cute. The colors may be off, but they can't be as far off as the A Xi D one was! (blue green, really?) But I suppose they do have to work within their color palette, not just accommodate the sororities. I think the SK one could actually be used for apparel (not that it will be), the others not so much. And I hated the Pi Phi one, which is a surprise. It's pretty easy to make their symbols super cute and current.
Will I order a clutch or something with our print? I guess I'd like to see them in real life, as I thought the colors were pretty barfy on all of them except AOII.

^^^agree with angels&angles' comment about Theta. The Theta print convinces me that someone or everyone at Lilly doesn't like Theta. How difficult is it to do something with kites and the twin stars and pansies? For Lilly, apparently it was too difficult so they came up with something kindergartenish and so garish that I wouldn't wear it to a rock fight.

Oh, right, now that I think of AXiD's colors, I don't like it nearly as much. That was my problem with Pi Phi, too...I think they could have made better use of the maroon, and instead, they pastel-ize everything.

With the previous grumbles from other orgs not getting their exact colors, I'm not surprised that AXiD didn't get our true colors. However, I LOVE the design...and I believe a future paycheck will be blown as soon as the items are available.

Well, one of my sisters over on FB just pointed out that our motto is spelled wrong on the Phi Mu print.

Really! Supposedly the HQs had to approve of the prints. What a woops. Hopefully they'll fix that before it's permanent. Your's and Sigma Kappa's are the only ones I liked!

Yeah, people make mistakes, so I don't know why people are getting indignant over it, I just hope they fix it. I wouldn't buy something that was spelled wrong.
