Since 1982, Kathleen Smith of Textile Reproductions has used naturally dyed color as a key element for creating
historically accurate reproductions of period textiles. Museums and collectors depend on her embroideries, furnishings
and articles of costume to bring history to life through the appreciation of textiles that can be handled and used. She
sells notions, fabrics, reproduction textiles and vegetable dyed muslins by the yard. The colors are rich, subtle and
beautiful!

Jane Porter is a sophisticated fashion designer whose feminine, classic silhouettes use the finest fabrics to create a
very elegant, couture look. Her lovely colors are derived from Earthues natural dyes, pigments and paints. Her wildly
imaginative eye-catching prints are her signature look, and her body-conscious styles are great to wear.
Nature Works
Nature Works is at Portland's famed Saturday Market, which runs Saturday and Sundays, March through December.
Nature Works sells a unique line of organic fiber clothing, that is shibori resisted and naturally dyed with Earthues
natural dye extracts. They offer a line of T-shirts, casual wear and scarves, all made in the USA. For more

Telephone 415-821-7288

Angelina DeAntonis is the creator of wonderfully original, beautifully dyed clothing using the Japanese itajime
clamp-style shibori process. She layers fabric and uses Earthues natural dyes in her colorways to create glowing,
luminous silhouettes inspired by a rich world history of traditional textiles, tribal and ethnic clothing. The clothes are
made from silks, wools and bast fibers, and are distinctive, contemporary and sumptuous.
Tinctoria Designs

www.tinctoriadesigns.com
Jill Berger and Samantha Backer design some of the most fashionable, comfortable, hemp clothing for style-conscious
hipsters, using Earthues natural dyes. Their fashions are body-conscious and comfortable, with rich and glowing
colorways. Samantha is an talented indigo dyer. Tinctoria Designs features styles that appeal to all ages, and has a
great page with all their naturally dyed colors and information about the dyes. We had the pleasure of visiting with
them recently, and tried on their beautiful, comfortable styles. Tinctoria is a regular exhibitor at the Green Festival in
San Francisco, Seattle and Denver.

www.stef-spins.com

Noon Solar
Telephone: 773-225-6141
1757 North Kimball, Chicago, IL 60647
info@noonsolar.com
www.noonsolar.com
The two founders of Noon Solar, Jane Palmer and Marianne Fairbanks, have backgrounds in fibers and textiles. They
met in the graduate MFA program at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Their company featuring
environmentally sound handbags with solar panels began as an art project in early spring of 2002 as a response to
the impending war in Iraq. They were feeling powerless in the country's decision making process and felt the US was
largely going to war for oil. They came up with a solution to give people not only personal power, but to integrate
renewable solar power into daily life. The designs are elegant and timely.
