They called her Marty.
My grandmother Martha made her own clothes — not as a craft and not as a statement, but because that was simply how clothing came to be. That is what got me sewing, and hers is the name on the label.
Everything is drafted, cut, and sewn by one person in East Nashville, and nothing is cut until you order it.
Read the full storyCut and sewn by hand
Every garment is made start to finish by one person, in East Nashville, Tennessee. Not assembled on a line, not finished overseas.
Fabric chosen first
Heavy, plain, selvage. Weight, mill, weave, and origin stated on every garment — it's the decision that matters most and the one most brands stay vague about. Heavy enough to be worth wearing on a bike.
Made when you order it
Nothing sits in a warehouse. Your garment is cut after you order it, which is why it takes four weeks and why it fits.
One garment at a time.
One person makes it. I draft the pattern, mark the fabric, cut it, and sew it start to finish, in East Nashville — no line, no handoffs, and nothing cut until you order it.
