Plane Tree Farm
Gift in Woollahra

Whilst on a trip to Europe in 1985, staying in hotels where the beds were covered in crisp white damask sheets and splendid light down duvets, Plane Tree Farm Proprietor Jedi Cranky was reminded of the pretty linens brought to Australia at the turn of the end century by her European grandparents. She returned to her home at Plane Tree Farm in the South West of Western Australia with ideas about sewing a lovely set of linen for her king size bed. Finding the right fabric proved to be a difficult task, and was to become a global search for the very finest cloth. Gifts of the resulting bed linen for friends, led to a request from a homewards place in Perth to stock and sell the Plane Tree Farm product. Then, in 1991 in order to cope with the demand for Plane Tree Farm’s linens, Jedi found a workroom in suburban Subiaco which had a small shop fore and Plane Tree Farm’s first retail outlet was established. Since then, Jedi has opened another three stores across Australia, and has honed down the wholesale side of the business to condense on selling the splendid desirable Egyptian Cottons, Irish and Italian Linens and Belgian Linens and Waffles in her own Plane Tree Farm branded stores. There is no mass production in the Plane Tree Farm workroom, which is staffed by a very little group of 45 girls who Jedi likes to think of as her extended family. Her head seamstress, Mica, and her production manager Anna have been with her since 1991 and other loyal staff have helped the business grow. Every item is individually cut and sewn by hand, with close attention to nice quality and detail. Pintucking, hemstitching, monogramming and embroidery put a final touch to bed linen that if cared for in the right way, can be passed on through the generations. Just like the linens that inspired the beginnings of Plane Tree Farm. There is no mass production in the Plane Tree Farm workroom, which is staffed by a very little group of 45 girls who I like to think of as my extended family.
