Reclaimed fabrics, Heritage learning, International collaboration
Accessories, clothes and bunting are made from unwanted textiles using vintage sewing machines in the World Heritage Site Cromford Mills.
We love recycling textiles, cutting them up and giving them a new life as something gorgeous.
We also enjoy learning from other people, so we have a weekly evening session where anyone can come with a textile based project, get on with it and learn from others. We work on community focused activities and sell items at regular local craft stalls. In the pipeline is a partnership with sewing groups in Tanzania.
That's why this isn't just shabby chic. It's part of a bigger picture, and the hope that fashion can be sustainable, fair and funky.
