This organic cotton table cloth is inspired by the Magnolia flower bud. The pattern is printed by hand using a carved wooden block and then dyed in Indigo. The cracks in the white space looks like batik printing and comes from the cracking of mud paste. When the mud dries and cracks, the Indigo takes the opportunity to freely seep in and celebrate! There is a 2" indigo border on the short sides.

The cotton fiber is reaped by farmers in a dry, soley rain fed region, without the use of chemicals. This slow process continues from the farmer, weaver, to the printer and dyer, who immerses the fabric in a bath of full of flowers, fruit skins, and/or spices.
