In a world of mass-produced, bar-coded products, Cut Out and Collect creates functional art that revives the spirit of individuality and creativity. All products with the Cut Out and Collect label are created one at a time as one of a kind conversation starters. All design work, embroidery, screen-printing, cutting, and sewing is executed by the artist.
Originally Bourgeois Bags, Cut Out and Collect began as Cheyne Little's attempt to avoid graduate school, jobs involving fax machines, and other acceptable adult endeavors. When she's not behind a sewing machine, Cheyne can be found operating an espresso machine, playing with cameras, rollin' with her art peeps, conquering mountains of books, or planning her third trip around the world. The Cut Out Collec tive includes friends and family who are artists and seamstresses, coming from both high and low places... mostly low.
If you're interested in owning a functional piece of art that will help express your own individuality, check out the Cut Out and Collect store or custom gallery if you need ideas for a custom order.
