I recognise that my family and I reside on the Unceded Territory of the Anishinaabeg on Turtle Island and I am grateful for it.
To have your product "Made In The USA" you would think you would be proud to have your workers make a contributable wage. It kinda goes with the label.

But stealing from THOSE YOU REPRESENT is the easiest way to make money. Look at the GOP.

Clearly these posts are inviting others to share their hatred towards those they do not know. So cruel. What a waste.

I'm torn between 2 & 3 because of the chest build and sleeve hang. 3 is hand stitched, but it could use a better press. 1 clearly isn't built for the wearer, but the fabric drapes well. 4 sleeve hangs poorly at the elbow, I don't think it should break that way.

3, 4, 1 are my answers, respectively.

So you know, this skilled hand-work took 4 hours per cup. And, I charged $160, total
