after developing and embellishing my own textiles for a while, I went to my textile archives and pulled out these 3 1930s chenille coverlets. they are hand tufted on bleached feedsack cotton. I've had them for about 6 years and had made 2 other shirts with them years ago (which left me with remnants that I couldn't really figure out at the time). The tufted yarns are in royal blue, turquoise, and seafoam green.
Its so nice to step away for a bit and then come back with a fresh headspace to create something you couldn't see before. It was probably too much overthinking on my part.
this textile is imperfectly perfect in all ways.
It’s finished with a clean placket, pearl buttons, and precise construction throughout. The inside is just as considered as the outside.
Convertible camp collar
Relaxed fit
Natural agoya shell pearl buttons
Split side seams
Clean finished interior
Please note that all textiles used are 50 to 125+ years old and may contain irregularities and/or areas of irregular color. All stains and fabric imperfections have been treated by us to the best of our ability and are common with vintage and antique textiles.
