Clothing
Repurposed cloth, wool blankets and gifted and new cotton and silk form the base of these creations. All cloth is bundled with seasonal leaves and plant matter in a dye bath to create unique, individual designs. Simple, constructed shapes are created where size is an indication only. An XL summer top looks totally amazing on a size 10 and yet fits a size 16.
