So many hands go into each Rustic Loom product and I wanted to share with you our process.
First, I get inspired (usually by nature), then play with shapes and color using paper stencils in my Brooklyn studio. I then scan the artwork into Photoshop and work into a repeated pattern. I make diagrams for wooden block cutting, select color ways, select yarns for color matching and approve color tests. Pigment is mixed and fabric is hand block printed by master printers in Bagru, India. The fabric is then stitched by a women's empowerment organization providing fair wages for women in India.
Thank you for welcoming Rustic Loom products into your home.
