In Blue Handmade started in 2008, after a relocation from bustling Chicago to a small farm in Southern Illinois. Mary Lynn Schroeder bought a sewing machine on the way down, learned how to work it, and never looked back. Going from "I" to "we" with a team of leather working magicians and 50,000 + sales, In Blue Handmade has gone from one brick and mortar shop to a studio that they call home.
Now located in West Asheville, NC, In Blue Handmade resides in a converted warehouse studio space. Together they make each piece by hand every day. The team starts with top grain cowhides, trace and cut the pattern pieces, sew 'em up, stamp down their ink, and ship them to your door.
Most importantly, In Blue Handmade loves what they do, and it means the world to the team to be able to bring you a personalized craft and a unique way to express yourself.
