the look

one-of-a-kind quilted dickey handmade from a reclaimed vintage patchwork quilt.

designed as a versatile layering piece, this dickey adds warmth, texture, and visual interest without the bulk of a full garment.

cut and sewn to sit flat across the chest with a softly structured neckline, it layers easily under coats, blazers, and sweaters, or can be worn over lightweight tops as a statement piece. finished with durable bound edges from salvaged denim for longevity and everyday wear, and waist ties so it can be worn as a vest.

it can be worn in 4 ways - with the snaps in the front, or the mockneck. it can also be reversed to the interior to really show off the hand-stiching.

we have made 5 of these dickeys from this circa 1940s scrap quilt we are calling 'the marlene quilt' - it is completely hand-stitched, with fabric including barkcloth and flour sack cloth. it had holes and stains throughout, and we are now repurposing.

each vintage piece has lived a life before finding its way to us, some may show signs of wear that add to its story and character.

we always disclose our condition rating and notes, but please inspect pictures thoughtfully.

all of our in-house products are made from salvaged textiles like quilts and table linens, deadstock vintage fabric, and other deadstock materials.

our goal is to celebrate these special fabrics and textiles by saving them and making them wearable.

we always list out all materials. because of the nature of these materials, there may be wear and details that vary from one item to the next.

all measurements in product descriptions are taken flat unless otherwise noted. we typically include an estimated modern size for reference, but we recommend reviewing all measurements.
