Handmade Through Community Initative
Our pillows are handmade by women in the greater Jacksonville, Florida area. We wanted to create some excitement around the skill, get women busy creating and sewing and support our community in a positive way.
We like to think we succeeded with this beautiful selection of styles.
Several of the women involved are members of ASG (American Sewing Guild).
Your pillow will come with a tag introducing who made it, like the one below.
We also offer Ethnic handloomed wool pillows made by Indigenous women in the
Andes of Peru that are fair traded through our partnership with Table of Clay.
Many of our pillows are one-of-a-kind and/or two-for-one
(meaning they have two sides, turn it over and you have a different pillow).
We also have styles that are orderable, you can request quantity, size and color.
