artisan-dyed fabrics and garments

artisan-designed and sewn garments - currently available


     I design and sew each of these garments from my own hand-dyed material, selecting the fabrics (delighting when I discover companion fabrics who have been dyed independently of each other!) and experimenting with draping and design. Often I am restricted to the amount of fabric available, since I've been unable to duplicate any of my fabrics - so the resulting jackets and vests are of varying sizes.
