Padraig Kiley












Cloth Alchemy is a tie-dye brand produced exclusively by Padraig (Paddy) Kiley, currently based in the greater Philadelphia area. His creative focus is almost exclusively in ice tie-dying, usually working on t-shirts and other clothing; however, tapestries and other decor items are often available.
Paddy generally pays little attention to the work of other tie-dye producers, but draws his inspiration largely from abstract sources. Nearly anything that amuses him might become fuel for the tie-dye; though, the people who wear his work are likely where he is most inspired.
All Cloth Alchemy products are made using Dharma Fiber Reactive Procion Dyes, soda ash, and most cotton blanks are acquired through Dharma Trading.
