this design was brought to life by regional farmers and producers who consider the worker and environment.
our cotton fibers are organically grown in west texas by a cooperative of organic growers. after this it is sent to a mill in north carolina to be spun into yarn (one of only two in the us that will process organic cotton). they are then are woven on 1940’s and earlier looms in a small town in pennsylvania that my family has deep history in. they are patterned, cut and sewn in a living wage, low waste studio in north carolina, and garment dyed in a small natural dyehouse in pennsylvania using plants.

this work is made to be worn, mended and passed down.
all of this work is garment dyed with plants in small batches in pennsylvania, due to this there may be some variation in color.
i recommend hand washing inside out in cold water with an eco detergent and hang to dry in a shady spot. with natural dyeing, colors will fade if left in the sun, and some dyes may react to citrus (check natural deodorants for this to avoid discoloration). iron inside out with a hot iron when lightly damp.
