Searching for a T-Shirt

It's March, which means I'm in the market for a t-shirt for my brother's birthday. What do my fellow team makers have available?

T-shirts as expected. But the search term "tshirt" also picks up a couple other interesting choices... 

Like, I did not expect to find a messenger bag, although this is an interesting choice.

I wonder what this is going to smell like...

Not something my brother would enjoy, but here's something really cute for a little girl...

An eclectic mix. Have you ever found an interesting item when searching out something else? Have you ever considered adding t-shirts to your line?

About

Welcome to my shop! 100 Acre was started as response to find unique, original, and versatile American made products. My store name is inspired by both my favorite children’s story and Mill Valley, CA. My wonderful husband, beautiful baby boy and I have the pleasure to live at the base of Mt. Tamalpais, surrounded by magnificent redwood forests on the edge of the Pacific Ocean.

My love of crafting and sewing were taught to me by my Grandma since I was a little girl. When I moved to California she gave me a new sewing machine, this store and my passion for sewing are dedicated to her. My creations are meant to be versatile, especially the reversible dresses. These dresses are meant to be worn year round and can be dressed up or down.

Moving to Mill Valley has made me appreciate nature and simplicity more than ever before. However we are also surrounded by the most innovative and creative ideas that you could only find in the San Francisco bay area. Hence, the fabrics I choose are a mix of modern, classic and fun. They are meant to be simple and beautiful. My look is fashion forward without being trendy - in a word: Timeless. In addition, my creations are limited release so any item you purchase is unique and original. Finally, all my items are handmade in Mill Valley, CA.

My husband, family and friends have been outstanding supporting me in this new role. Previous to having a family I worked at major university doing agricultural research for 10 years. Now I’m a full time mom and wife. My goal is to continue to introduce new designs and products. Thank you so much for taking a moment to stop by my shop.

Always grateful,

Anita
