Not Yo' Granny's Linens

Not Yo’ Granny’s Linen is inspired by both my stash of inherited linens and love of Jane Austin’s world. Conceptually, this collection is a satirical portrayal of the words never embroidered, never stitched and never spoken by our sisters of yesteryear. This series contrasts the stereotype of the well-bred, gentile homemaker with a healthy dose of feminism. Paying homage to the long tradition of women working with textiles, these linens are today’s embroidery samplers from cheeky, to flirty to down right subversive.
