A Year with Sown Of The Earth
This year began with me taking my shahada, finding deeper devotion in surrender to God
This then influenced the clothing I decided to make - modest devotional wear that inspires one to be in their truth, their form of devotion & to be wrapped in their reminder.
In the beginning of the year, I began to dive in to natural dying to find a way to be in the world of textiles that nourishes the Earth & the wearer.
I learned about the profound impacts of linen on the body, energetically & physically, & was inspired by the ancient use of linen, and so I chose to solely use linen as my medium.
My first line desert breeze was created,
I had my first workshop with earth pigments, launched my website & got to share my passion.
It was a long slow journey from the vision, the understanding of, to the creation of all of it. With many messages received along the way that impacted the creation that would not have come had it been rushed.
This craft continually teaches me to slow down, to nourish, to trust and to surrender to the process.
I close this year in gratitude and awe. It is my prayer that the world of textiles and clothing and fashion continues to make strides towards health, towards honoring the body, your earth, and each other.
I pray that we adorn ourselves in fabrics that nourish us, & that feel incredible on our skin. I pray for a time when we can look at clothing tags, and it’s all natural fibers no matter the store we are in!! Inshallah
Thank you infinitely to those who have been here from the very beginning, it truly has shown me that those who love & surround us -when they support, cheer us on, encourage us, believe in us, and are there every step of the way - Everything and anything is possible.
May this year for you be one where you believe fully in yourself, all in, that you know you are exactly where you’re meant to be. May you always trust in God & where you’re being led.
Allahu Akbar🙏
all praises to The Most High
