Made With Love In Maine

It all started with a Saturday afternoon project. I had been to a flea market and spotted vintage barkcloth. The fabric jumped out at me, and I felt a connection to the design and texture of the fabric. Was it my grandmother's home, or memories of cottages on Maine islands I had visited as a child?  I was not quite sure, but at that very moment my barkcloth pillows began to evolve.

As an artist and photographer, I have always found myself yearning to preserve the past. So, it is not difficult to imagine why this lovely fabric caught my eye and imagination. It is so full of history I feel compelled to repurpose it!

Now I present to you, with love, my diverse, limited edition, handcrafted barkcloth pillows.
