Lil Bits Cloth Small Pouch is approximately 6" x 8.5" and made with natural dyes.

From the Artist:

"Lil Bits Cloth is made by me, Eliza Wapner, in New Orleans, LA. Everything is handmade and naturally dyed using plants. This means each garment is usually made over the course of a week- first cutting the pieces, dyeing them, hand washing them, and then sewing them together. It's a labor-intensive process but the end result is a unique, well made, and custom garment that will last and be cherished.

Lil Bits Cloth was born out of a reaction to fast fashion. The apparel industry is thought to be the second most polluting industry after oil and gas. I believe that fashion is where the organic food industry was 20 years ago- people are just beginning to realize that our clothes come from somewhere and are plant and animal.

When making each piece for Lil Bits, I use plant based natural dyes. Natural dyes are a great alternative to synthetic dyes- they are much less harsh on our waterways, more healthy to use for the dyer and producer, and create a beautiful color palette. I use materials like hemp when I can, and have recently been trying to use more repurposed materials such as second hand t-shirts and deadstock linen."
