This is an opportunity to literally take a piece of the long table home. Inspired by Kitchen Garden Textiles' goal to create a sustainable production cycle, this set of 4 linen napkins — designed, woven and sewn in Pennsylvania using organic flax — were used to set our table for events. After being washed to supple softness, they have been reclaimed and shibori dyed by Green Matters Natural Dye Company using onion skins collected from Heidi's local food co-op in Pennsylvania.
Each napkin measures 20" x 20" with mitered corners. Napkins sold in a set of 4.
Due to their handmade nature and natural dye process, expect variation in color tone and pattern of each individual napkin. Napkins are final sale.
Care instructions:
wash in cold water
dry on low heat or hang to dry
to preserve natural dye, do not use bleach or whitening agents
About Heidi Barr:
Kitchen Garden Textiles creates elegant linen essentials in Pennsylvania as they work towards their vision of all American-grown flax linen products. In her search for locally grown flax linen, Heidi Barr discovered that there is currently no linen fabric produced in the United States. She took up the challenge and co-founded The PA Flax Project, a sister organization dedicated to rebuilding the American flax for linen industry with an eye towards inclusivity and ecological regeneration. We first featured Kitchen Garden Textiles hand-dyed napkins at our 2022 event at Kneehigh Farm in Pennsylvania, which celebrated the PA Flax Project's vision for revitalizing the American flax industry and Kitchen Garden Textile's vision of seed-to-table linens.
