Who would have thought that a curtain made from tea towels would look this good…

The aestethics on this website are great…pure and clean, simple and fresh. Bring more!

Wonderful – think, women have historically always worked in textiles. Few of them have been recognized artists. My mother who is 75 years picked flax, struck the flax and then she ha to spin the flax and wove it. Then she sewed a folk-costume of this. Today this process feels like it’s the 1800s.

My mother has made many towels so a curtain would be a tribute to all those women and mothers who despaired hard.

If I find my sewing machine…
