Slow, hand-made fashions weave small textile district in East Lansing

Since 2019, Woven Art Yarn Shop and Seams Sewing and Mercantile in East Lansing have been entwined in a partnership that celebrates slow fashion by encouraging customers to make clothing by hand with sustainably sourced materials. An established textile and fiber arts community in East Lansing is relatively new. In 2003, artist Nancy McRay founded Woven Art, inspired by her passion for weaving and yarn hand-dyeing, said the shop’s current owner, Meg Croft. When McRay decided to return to full-time artistry in 2013, she sold the business to Croft, who was a Woven Art employee at the time.
