This woman-owned company is inspired by nature and more specifically its fauna and flora. Illustrations are the starting point and then are printed onto fabric, then turned into handy storage for all types of crafts. The bags are made out of 100% organic cotton, printed with eco-friendly water-based inks, and finished with vegan cork cords. The sustainability of both the materials and the making process is an important aspect of her business. Bags are available in two sizes and in limited quantity. Stop in and check them out.
We had a visit from Nina from Just Nina Knits, who dropped off some beautiful mohair/fingering bundles. Nina is our local dyer from Batavia and has created some amazing yarn. Please stop in and see the new colors while they last.
