Shop Grand Opening!

Hinterland Craft has officially opened up shop on Etsy! All of the goods you see here on this blog are now available for purchase at http://www.etsy.com/shop/hinterlandcraft. Go peek!

Indigo Camping Knapsack

This bag is a result of my latest tie-dyeing session. When submerged in a gray dye bath, this violet cotton took on beautiful shades of indigo. It is lined with a tea stained muslin and has a hand stamped label and braided tie sewn to the top. It also wants to go hiking with you. Soon.

Diamond Pouch

This one of a kind pouch is made from a natural linen that was hand tie-dyed in a tan bath. It has a diamond patch stitched to the front and is lined in a matching mint green cotton. A tea stained muslin strap holds the soft fold-down flap in place and is secured under a braided loop. It’s a perfect place to store travel toiletries, craft supplies or your secret chocolate stash.

New Back Pocket Notebook

I finished a new style of back pocket notebook this morning! This one has a cotton cover that is hand tie-dyed in pale baths of gray and pink. The inner blue lining is made from upcycled cotton and is hand stamped. A braided mint green tie is sewn to the inside and can be wrapped around to secure the pages. This book is hand bound with 30 small pages of post consumer recycled paper stitched inside.

Herbal Sachet

Add a little fragrance to your life with these herbal sachets. All sachets are hand tie-dyed fabric scraps, stuffed with a dried herb mix, stitched together and hand stamped. Their small size makes them perfect, unobtrusive little air fresheners. Varieties include lavender, sage, patchouli and rose.

Mulberry Notebook

These notebooks are printed from a hand carved linoleum block onto natural mulberry rice paper. The golden pattern is influenced by traditional Aztec art. It is hand bound with a cream card stock lining and 30 pages of post consumer recycled writing paper tucked inside waiting for you.

Camping Knapsack

This spacious over the shoulder bag has plenty of room for all of your outdoor excursion must-haves. The strap is thick and double stitched, fully prepared to handle a heavy load! This natural mustard linen was hand tie-dyed in a dark gray bath before being sewn up and lined in an olive green cotton. A braided green tie is stitched to the top to ensure secure closure. A hand stamped label and pink detail stitching bring it all together. You’ll be in hiking heaven.

Farmer’s Market Bags

This bag is the perfect companion for you on your weekly trips to the local farmer’s market. Together the striped cotton and natural linen lining give it the strength to carry home your fresh fruits and veggies. Complete with two sturdy handles, a small inner pocket and a hand stamped label, you won’t want to leave home without it!

I’ve made two versions: dark gray and red. They’ll be ready for snatching when the shop opens this coming Sunday, February 6th!

Aztec Notebooks

I’ve added a new linen notebook to the collection! The design was influenced by traditional Aztec patterns and the dusty colors of the Mexican desert. I hand printed the cover from one of my linoleum blocks onto a tobacco linen-rayon blend. The inner lining and tie are both natural linen. Thirty 100% post-consumer recycled pages are hand stitched inside. I hope to have some more color variations of this pattern printed soon!

Back Pocket Notebooks

These cuties are designed to be with you anywhere, anytime! They come in two varieties: the brown and mustard one is made from linen, and the beige and red one is made from natural muslin and cotton. Both patterns are hand printed from a linoleum block I carved. Each notebook has a braided cotton tie to keep it closed and preserve your thoughts!

Cactus Card Set

The imagery for this card set was inspired by a trip we took to San Diego a few summers ago. I completely fell in love with the desert and the mix of lush and barren landscapes. We saw these prickly pear cacti all over the place!

The cactus is a print from a hand carved linoleum stamp with detail drawn on top. Simple envelopes constructed from craft paper complete the set, a perfect greeting for any occasion!

New Chevron Notebook

I stitched up this notebook a couple of days ago and couldn’t wait to share it with you! You can look forward to seeing this in the shop as well!

The cover is a block print on upcycled blue cotton and lined inside with natural muslin. It’s pretty think and durable with 30 pages of 100% post-consumer recycled paper tucked inside to capture all of your on the go inspiration! I sewed a muslin tie to the inside of the back cover that can be wrapped around the book to keep it closed and secure.

Favor Bags

I finished up these little goodies a few nights ago! Each little bag is hand sewn from muslin and has a hand printed stamp. Stuffed with a little tissue paper and a few candies, they become the perfect parting gift!

Be on the lookout for these in the shop in the next few coming weeks!
