I have been working on 2 new styles of hats a conductor and an apple jack hat. Made out of upholestry rements. They are lined in hemp and with unique buttons to add to the individual style. I also am working on making some of these out of leather too.

What is great about these fabrics are that they are totally recycled from a furniture store fabric books. I will be posting new pic’s soon.

Also I have been working on a few styles of aprons. Here are an examples and if your interested in purchasing there are some available in the “Shop Here” page. Also because they are prints the only way I can take a custom order is with the hemp with an applique. And that will be $15 more then the print. Making it $65. Thank you again for all your support.

Hemp Hiker Pants

Hemp Hiker pants—always popular! Unless you specify otherwise, I will make 1 pockets and use decorative applique design on the bottom of pants. The pants are always made out of hemp, usually the Hemp Diva blend. These pants are great for hiking or just a casual day.

I love the pattern of my pants, especially the ‘v’ stitching in the back of the pants. The drawstring hole is reinforced with an eyelet and drawstring (instead making a fabric drawstring). There are always fancy stitches to be found on the front of the legs and pockets.

There is elastic from hip to hip and a drawstring in the front so the pants are able to fit your specific body shape. There are 3 different size and you get to chose the inseam length. In fact, you get to choose the color of fabric, stitching, length, and applique design. How often do you get those kind of choices when it comes to the clothing you wear? My goal is to make you feel unique in your clothing, not another walking cookie cutter outfit.

All my clothing is pre-washed, serged and bottom-stitched and top-stitched. This makes it more durable. The quality stitching plus the durablity of hemp makes for a pair of pants that will last you a lifetime, and the applique adds art to these pieces of clothing to make the multi-fuctional.

These are past examples of what I have made. Check out what I have in “Shop Here” if there isn’t anything there you like and you see something here you fancy I will work with you on designing a new piece. Click on picture to enlarge.

Vintage Style Aprons

A mix of Scallop style and classic style of aprons.

Purses Range from size and style:

Hemp Hats are lined and have fancy buttons sewed on them. I will soon be showing my upholstery hat that are lined in light weight hemp. Keep coming back for more changes and styles.

Upholstery hats $35

Apple Jack Hat

Conductor Hat

Hemp hats $40

These are sheepskin hats that I make with Beaver trim. Living in Alaska it gets extremely cold and knit hats don’t cut it. I took a fur sewing class last winter and was able to get the art down. With the little girls hats and Mama’s I add glass or stone beads to the stitching to give it a flavor of attitiude. These hats are amazingly soft and durable.

Girl’s Chore hats- $80

Mama’s Chore hats -$150 boy’s Chore hats- $70 Daddy’s Chore hats- $160

Yoga bags are great if you are biking to your class or walking. On average they are between $25-30.

Hemp Yoga Pants/Shirts

Working out in Hemp is great because it is strong and holds its shape. This prevents hemp garments from stretching out or becoming distorted with use. My favorite thing about hemp is its resistance to mold. It is porous so your sweat won’t be captured.

This fabric is a blend of 55% Hemp and 45% Cotton Jersey Knit. Everyone that has purchased a pair always comments on how soft the fibers are and the way it flows on the body, complimenting the curves.
The long-sleeve yoga top is stretchable and can fit up to a size 12 without being tight. The yoga pants can also fit up to a size 12. The bottoms are tied with a drawstring, and the pants are hemmed to your inseam. You can also have elastic or both. Click on the pictures below to make them larger.

Custom Wrap Skirts

susannaevins — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 22:56:52 +0000

Practical Details: These are
beautiful wrap skirts that you won’t have to pin. Our ankle-length skirt provides plenty of room for movement—meaning it won’t unwrap or reveal your legs like other wrap skirts. The waist is adjustable from a size 4–16 (for mothers, this is perfect for early pregnancy and afterwords when losing the baby weight). The front of the skirt measures 33 inches to the floor, and the back measures 38 inches to the floor.

This skirt is so comfortable, you will want to wear it everyday. It is made out of a white, semi-thick hemp and has been pre-washed. The appliqué is made out of hand-dyed hemp. I love to create what I see out my backdoor, and I love to share and hear feedback, so please feel free to let me know what I can do for you. Click on the pictures below to see a larger image.
