Yes indeed! The delightful and talented Lotta Jansdotter and I have collaborated on a limited edition release of espadrilles with FIVE of her fabrics for a super special Me Made May. You heard me GUSH about Lotta Jansdotter in my last post, when I made her jacket pattern and now I’m back with LOTTA JANSDOTTER ESPADRILLE KITS!
It’s a dream come true experience for me. Don’t they look gorgeous on Lotta?

Details:
Not only is her talent expansive and her design eye keen but her heart is huge! Lotta’s fabrics are all hand screen-printed by artisans in a small, family-run workshop. The dyes used are nontoxic and the fabric is the perfect blend of linen and cotton. They are, in other words, a perfect match for The Espadrilles Kits.
The following designs are available, in very limited quantities:

+ Skissa in Mustard (shown on Gigi Weinberg)
All kits come with both the conventional pattern as well as the brand-new Strappy Pattern. Please note: due to the special nature of the fabric, the kits come with around a fat quarter of the linen-cotton canvas which isn’t enough to make fabric straps. As a result, they come with 4 yards of twill tape for easy and slim-design straps.

I cannot wait to see the beauty that you all create with these spectacular fabrics. They all really have the potential to make wonderful year-round shoes. Of course, I can’t stop imagining them on fabulous vacations and taking in stunning sights.
