Dear Reader,
Where do your clothes come from?
Here is where the clothes I make come from.
Currently I draught my patterns at home on
the dining room table. I would do it in the sewing room but it is a bit cooler
in there – the heater is next to the dining room. The weather is getting quite
cool here is South Gippsland, time to rug up!
Then I take my patterns to my parent’s
house where I cut out and sew up. And, more importantly my Mum and Dad take
care of my little one. They have a big spare room where I have my industrial
machines set up – just perfect!
So, I am writing about this for those of
you who want to know where their clothing comes from. Mine are all happy and
free to roam…. Haha.
Eco-friendly is a term I shy away from as I
think every company and their dogs feel it is OK to say this about their
products and it means little to some.
I am a great hoarder and hate to throw anything out, so I guess I am
kind to the environment in that way! Whenever I buy fabric I try to use every
bit of it and some off cuts make great cleaning rags or dishcloths.
A few pictures of my workspace and view
from the window.
Take care,
Christina.
