Beautiful naturally dyed project bags sewn by Tannei Casey, whimsical prints from the farm on sturdy canvas products by Eric + Christopher, and some treats such as a book signing with Sonya Philip, Designer + Simply Shetland’s North American representative Gudrun Johnston, and Designer Catherine Clark of Brooklyn General.
