Featured designer: JoAnna Reeves, Little Castle Designs

JoAnna is a children's librarian turned seamstress on a sustainable mission.  She believes it is important to teach our children about where our clothing comes from, just like we teach them where their food comes from, talking with them about how different fibers and materials are made, and their impact on the planet.  She uses sustainable materials such as organic fabric and recycled thread wherever possible, and believe that handmade clothing promotes a "slow fashion" approach to dressing in a fast fashion world.

JoAnna

JoAnna has always enjoyed creating, but rediscovered her passion for sewing when she started making clothes for her own children. In fact, she started sewing so much, that opening up a shop seemed like the logical next step and thus Little Castle Designs was born.  She love making clothes that are simultaneously beautiful, practical, and just a little bit whimsical.

Everything in JoAnna's shop is made with love, care, and a sprinkle of pixie dust, and of course, she absolutely believes there is a perfect book for every outfit.
