| Here you will find the painted ripstop from Aerial
Art. Scott Hampton uses his manly fabric then hand paints the material to get his well known and sought after faded color scheme on his fantastically designed kites. Each one of the items we carry from Scott is one-of-a-kind, the shape and design may be reproduced but the colors of the paint is never the same! |

| Karl Longbottom, maker from Herefordshire in the UK, is known probably most for his underwear - well not necessarily his but the ones that he designed and flys. We are happy here to be the only place in the US to get your hands on his underwear and on his Angels. | ![]() |
Ordering and shipping info

| Eric Curtis and Anne Sloboda are Canadian
Kitemakers who produce
outstanding kites. A special dyeing process makes each of
their
kites one of a kind. To add to the kites uniqueness is that
each
kite is only available as a limited run of kites.
Celtic designs
are a part of life here at Windswept Kites, It makes sense then that we carry the nicest celtic knotwork kites available. |

Van Weers is a New Zealander who started flying kites in the
Netherlands. He is known for designing schools of
large fish windsocks. Robert is also a master of
making soft kites, windsocks and banners. We are proud to have a selection of windsocks, kites and his banners in the shape of the New Zealand National Bird (the Kiwi). |

| Anything that Gill Bloom has
made is
recognizable by the amount of color and detail in her kites and
banners! Painstaingly, she details the highlights on a petal
of a
flower using the color of the dyes, appliqued fabrics and extra
stitching. We have been a fan of her items for quite some time, and are very glad to bring our friend Gill's items here! |

| Here
is the first offerings of softgoods from us! If you have been flying in the New England area for longer than 10 years it is certain that you have seen one of these shirts! These are brand new old stock that were discovered at David Laferriere's house. Get them while you can, stock is VERY limited! |

| Dave
Johnson -a local (to us) kite
flyer/maker has been gleaning design tactics from kite makers like
Scott Hampton with painted fabric, then he building some great feather banners. Dave has not shied away from any custom banner design yet-if you want something special just ask, and see what he says. |
