TOSU CHEZELLA

SIZE GUIDE AND OTHER PRODUCT DETAILS

Textile Origin Story:

One man's trash is another's treasure; in this case literally. My neighbors are very skilled gardeners. They have taken on an outdoor common area for our building for years. We all benefit from the delight of their dedication to a garden that flashes flowers continually for four or five months in the non-snowy season. In the Fall they cut back the leafy parts of the bulb plants and discard them for composting. One Spring I was out early in the morning and saw the pile, frosted and slightly snow covered. I took many photos. I ended up going back to them a few years later and creating the pattern Chezella. Some versions of Chezella are cut on an angle and when digitally stitched create a medallion effect. I have used this medallion for several custom duvet covers for clients in the original color file. Amping up the contrast in gray scale created the version you see here. Very retro! Fun fact, she (one of the gardeners) is the "Jillian" of the Jillian textiles.

Our Defiance long sleeve shirt is the ideal must have companion piece for the outdoorsy person. Happy customers bike, ski, hike, and surf in these stylishly appointed raglan cut moisture-wicking athletic shirts. With a UPF of 50+ there is no need to fret about being in the sunshine. These are among my favorite pieces to design as it is an excellent canvas for mixing patterns from my bespoke textile collection. A Defiance long sleeve shirt isn't just for sport; use it for fashion as well!

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
