Hi there!

I’m Layne, a textile artist, passionate creative and collaborative thinker. I seek opportunities that are community driven as well as sustainably centered and am motivated to develop a slow, mindful craft, inspired by the people of our past and built to last into our futures.

The Birds Outside exists as an exploration in textile craft and development of products that are designed and produced with care and consideration for people and the planet. I strive to only use secondhand and reclaimed material and deeply believe in a hands-on process, being a part of every step.

Thank you all for stopping by :)

Lets keep in touch!
