Alumni Update - Emily Goodwin Wong


Hello and welcome to my shop Other Side of the Pillow - thanks for taking a look! Everything in my shop is designed and sewn in my smoke and pet-free studio in Austin, Texas. The fabric of the pillow covers is hand painted using concentrated watercolor dyes, then digitally printed in North Carolina. This method uses less ink than traditional printing, making it a more environmentally friendly technology. It also allows for printing millions of colors, allowing the designs to have rich depth and detail. Pillow covers are sold separately, but inserts are available for purchase. The inserts are handmade using kapok - a soft-as-down, hypoallergenic, and resilient fiber. It is obtained from the seedpods of the kapok tree in the rainforest using indigenous labor and sustainable harvesting methods.

Hope you enjoy browsing the store & feel free to tell your friends!
