The Soul Threads Story
With a strong connection to color and unique textile designs,
we offer a diverse and interesting selection of one-a-kind original wearable art clothing and accessories. Soul Threads is primarily an up-cycled clothing brand supplementing with various fiber textile crafts. In up-cycling, I redesign used or vintage clothing by deconstructing and resewing it, adding vintage fabrics and ethnic textile panels and trims (either up-cycled or my own creations). Since I choose to only use natural materials, I do not use recycled materials such as dead-stock fabric and clothing or fabrics made from recycled materials including plastic. The fiber textile crafts used in the up-cycling designs are explored more fully in accessories such as scarves and shawls, as well as hand-dyed comfortable casual clothing. These crafts include: hand-dyeing or discharging using Shibori dyeing techniques; felting; hand-knitting; free-form crocheting; weaving; embroidery; stitchery; and other hand embellishments. |
