Note from Liz: I am honored to carry a selection of bags and coats from Anchal. When I came across Anchal while planning what I would carry at Three Bird Layne, I was first struck by the gorgeous patchwork and stitching. Then as I read more about their story, I realized that their values are literally woven into each item. And that story is further honored when the artists embroider their name into each finished piece they make.
