The Heart of My Craft: Quality, Craftsmanship, and Sustainability

Posted by Tammi Williams on Sep 25th 2024

At yarn&whiskey, every product I create is rooted in a deep love for textiles, design, and craftsmanship. Each bag tells a story—one of intentionality, creativity, and care. My work is a reflection of my passion, and I want to share more about the values that guide me through every step of the process.

Designed with Purpose and Intention

Every yarn&whiskey bag starts with a thoughtful design. From the moment I sketch the initial concept to the final stitch, each element is carefully considered. I design my bags to be not only functional but also pieces that make a statement. My goal is to create something that adds beauty and joy to your everyday life—something you reach for again and again because it feels special.

Responsibly Sourced and Sustainably Printed Fabrics

I believe that the materials we use matter. That’s why the fabrics I print are responsibly sourced and digitally printed in North America. This method of digital printing is a little more sustainable than traditional techniques, as it uses less water and creates less waste. By choosing to source my fabrics responsibly, I’m committed to minimizing my environmental impact while still delivering high-quality, unique textiles.

Craftsmanship at the Core

As a trained designer, I take pride in the craftsmanship behind every bag. I studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and have spent years refining my skills to ensure that every piece is made with precision and care. My bags feature original textile designs, custom linings, and durable materials that are meant to last. Whether it’s the strength of the seams or the functionality of the design, every detail is considered so that you can feel confident in the quality of what you’re carrying.

A Commitment to Thoughtful Design

I don’t believe in rushing the creative process. Every bag I make is produced in small batches, which allows me to maintain high standards and ensure that each piece is something I’m proud to share with the world. By focusing on small-scale production, I’m able to put more care and attention into each product, making sure it’s as beautiful as it is functional.

Made to Last, Loved for a Lifetime

My hope is that when you carry a yarn&whiskey bag, it becomes a cherished part of your everyday life—something that not only looks good but feels good to use. These bags are designed to be durable and to stand the test of time. They’re not just accessories, but functional works of art that can be passed down, each with its own story to tell.

Thank you for supporting independent makers like me and for believing in the value of thoughtful, sustainable craftsmanship. Each piece I create is made with care, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share that with you.

xo,
