Over 26 square yards of fabric in the largest Throw and Cocoon creates a "naturally weighted" feeling. The elastic thread stitching patterns create a unique puckering stretchable fabric which "hugs" the user, traps air for warmth, and results in an extremely warm, soft, soothing, luxurious throw or cocoon with a beautiful rich texture for your home decor. One of the goals of the artists is achieved by helping the user decrease stress and anxiety by calming themselves in a simple and natural way. 10-12 square yards of this same soft fabric with elastic thread stitched throughout is sewn into an elegant, warm stole/wrap that actually gives you a bit of a hug while wearing. We also make infinity scarves from this same one-of-a-kind fabric that we sew. Both our puckering stretchable fabric and our cocoons are patent pending. All of our works are handmade (though we do use sewing machines, not needle and thread) and are designed and created by a mother-daughter team.
