This abstract shape looks like tropical coral thanks to the bright true red that gives these shapes a lively color. A design the artist calls "combs" represents the last line she created using a hand block technique before transitioning her tea towels to screen print.

Playful shapes and pops of color are our jam! Allison McKeen’s printed tea towel really brings it with a bright hue and funky sometimes playground-equipment-inspired imagery. Hand printed on 100% cotton, shapes both contemporary and reminiscent of vintage textiles are delightful and useful. Candy colored blobs always add a bit of whimsy that compliments any decor.

Whether you're drying dishes, serving tea, or in need of a big napkin - lobster bib perhaps? - these flour sack cotton towels are absorbent and sturdy, truly fun-ctional.

The results can be bold and colorful - a playfulness that includes shape, pattern, and color. This is her intention citing a desire for spontaneity and adventure that originates from the rural environment of her upbringing along the Kennebec River.
