About Eden Saalsaa
Olden - Sustainable Artisan Made Goods for Your Home Using Authentic Vintage Textiles.
A third generation sewist with a passion for old fabric. While I have made a lot of stuff over the years including doll clothes and wedding dresses to costumes & ballet tutus I realized old fabrics kept appearing in my closets and sewing supplies (unused). Every antique store, flea market and estate sale I went to I was drawn to these textiles.
During the covid lay off I finally got to all of the wonderful old fabrics I had collected and this is when Olden came to life. I never went back.
