About
Hello! Maisilene is the sister shop of Sara Parker Textiles. We use our line of hand-printed textiles to make table linens, home accessories, handbags and notions for the home sewist. We also have a rotating collection of letterpress and digitally printed greeting cards.
We print our textiles on organic cotton + hemp base cloth, from our studio in Athens, Georgia. We use our off-cuts and yardage from Sara Parker Textiles to make ready-made items through Maisilene.

Maisilene products are sewn with our beautifully printed organic textiles from Sara Parker Textiles.
All of our products are printed, sewn, and shipped from our Athens, Georgia studio.
We love supporting fellow small businesses by purchasing supplies from other small companies:
