Well, When I arrived back this year after 7 weeks in oz, i was excited to see that Sinta, Novi, Ange and Anona had been trying new products while i was gone. (Anna has taken time off to care for her child) And the creativity hasn't stopped. It feels like each time i pop my head in they have a new design hanging up. So ill show you some pics. I walked in today and started to the left of the room and just walked around each wall taking photos of the new items since Dec last year. Of course this doesn't include items sold already….
They also did some rearranging of boxes and supplies a few weeks ago. (Our room is rather cramped with not enough suitable storage yet.) Anyway they came across some remnants of furnishing type fabrics which had been donated to us last year. They measured out larger pieces and hemmed them into table cloths and door curtains. Then the smaller pieces they started crafting into all sorts of handbag styles. They are using details such as pleats, gathers, tucks, tabs, flaps etc. I love it. They seem to be really bouncing skills and ideas off each other.
Also, last but not least, i don't think i have shown you pics of the additions to their school uniform range. Apparently some girls visited them wanting a full skirt made in their school fabric. So they designed some skirts with large pleats in the interesting pumpkin shade….
And last but not least they made some tiny black school pants for early primary school students.
I am overall very happy to see them stretching their abilities. If only we could ship over some rolls of lovely cotton prints from India, we could start our own clothing line :) Dreaming….
