TEXTILE ART WITH A MAKE DO AND MEND ETHOS

"Boro is a centuries-old textile practice from to northern Japan, made mostly by women for the purposes of survival and functionality, and uses up the limited resources available to them. Meaning rags or tatters in Japanese, boro handicrafts and garments are pieced together from scraps of fabric, leaving behind little to no waste."

A vibrant activity to bring our sad little bluestone cottage to life. Or even a clothing swap with a mending activity. Lots of possibilities in 2020 to open up this building to the public.
