Description
Made to be shared by everyone in the house, our Work Coat is our very first unisex silhouette, inspired by the old barn and chore coats that have always hung by the door. In a once in a lifetime archive of the most spectacular quilts to ever grace our hands, it really felt like we were on the right path as the universe connected us with all that we needed to bring this longtime vision, and feeling, to life. Beautifully crafted and made to last, each one of a kind, artist-made piece is lined in a soft yet durable railroad denim sourced from a small Canadian supplier, is complete with four functional patch pockets and is finished with a set of authentic metal shank buttons (including two at each cuff to make sizing and sleeve length adjustable), hammered in one by one. A piece we can’t wait to live in, and one that feels like it’s been here all along.
Due to the limited nature of our salvaged heirloom pieces, all sales are final.
Made with love in Toronto since 2003
More
Designed, cut and sewn by our small team of artists in Toronto Canada, each Honeybea piece is one or a few of a kind. Made in a handcrafted patchwork of responsibly salvaged antique and vintage textiles that we have found damaged or displaced, our work is inspired by the love and warmth of hand-stitched heirlooms, and the way they will always bring us together.
Materials
Lightweight 19th century crazy quilt with pale tones, Scottish tartans and brilliant hand-embroidered stitch work. Responsibly salvaged antique and vintage quilts circa 1880 - 1980. 100% cotton lining.

Special Note
All of our textiles are carefully selected one by one for their beauty, intricacy and spirit, and have been laundered and restored to the best of our ability. Signs of age and wear are some of the many characteristics we admire in these historic heirlooms and imperfections or mending is to be embraced.
