This project has arisen from two main starting points. One is from my own love of crafting and desire to continue these important skills by passing them on. I believe that a sustainable way of living is only possible if you have a good working knowledge of making the items you need to live, ie clothes and that people with low incomes can still have ‘luxury’ items- handmade gifts, household items, decoration etc using recycled and reclaimed materials to produce items superior to similar cheap mass produced products.
