For the first ten years, all fabric used for potholders, trivets and holiday ornaments came from recycled, post consumer, no longer “fashionable”, sweaters.
Wrist and waistband ribbing, and other colorful scrap also make fun garlands sometimes found today in a Studio Drop.
from hand sewing embroidered balls, angels & pincushions create lots of colorful, short lengths of woolly threads.
Colorful short threads extend the message of quality on our products. No plastic T-guns for our multiples!
We source recycled, remnant and closeout hides. The scrap from cutting circles is carefully sorted by size, length, and hue.
Bits too small for our reuse are set aside and when we have several pounds, are sold to jewelers or doll makers for $1 + cost of shipping.
includes any form of wool waste, from jacquard double weave fabrics, woolen flannel, recycled sweaters, yarns, threads, fibers, and sheep fleece.
Reclaiming the waste produced in our studio is Craft in service to Art. Hands, heart, mind, and machine engage a multi-step dance for Beauty!
