Naturally Dyed Fabric, Eco-Printed in our Oakland Studio

~~~

It's time for a special summer treat! We are releasing a collection of three different fabrics eco-printed with three different dyes. Choose between lightweight linen, dreamy silk habotai, and sheer silk organza, or mix and match to create an amazing fabric collaboration of textures and colors. 

We dyed these fabrics in our Oakland studio with whole dyestuffs, using marigolds grown in Sebastopol, coreopsis grown in the Capay Valley, and cochineal bugs from Oaxaca. Due to the handmade nature of these fabrics, your fabric may vary from the photos.

We envision so many beautiful garments being made from these fabrics. With a quick finished edge, 2 yards of any of the fabrics could become a lightweight summer scarf. Sew a gauzy beach coverup with the silk organza or use it as a sheer panel in a summer shirt. Use the lightweight linen in your favorite summer dress or shirt pattern. The silk habotai would make a great lining for your favorite jacket or coat pattern, or do some quick cutting and stitching for heirloom pocket squares. See specific suggestions for each fabric below or peruse our sewing patterns.
