| Introduction | Joaquina Design Studio produces handcrafted fashions and home decor that wed esthetics and functionality with sustainability. Each item is made one at a time in my Dayton, Oregon studio, using quality vintage, salvaged, and reworked textiles as well as hand-dyed fabrics. For every project, the process becomes a revealing journey that channels the era and mood evoked by a unique piece of fabric. |
