The concept is simple and based upon Japanese culture where fabric cloths are used for wrapping food, gifts or virtually anything. It is called "furoshiki" and more information can be viewed here.
A while back a friend gave me a gift wrapped in a beautiful piece of floral fabric which I turned into a napkin by hemming the edges. Maybe that's where the seed was planted.
The idea really sprouted when I happened upon a Vancouver textile recycling intiative called Our Social Fabric. A link to their website is here where you can learn more about their work and admirable goals.
Attending one of the monthly sales OSF hosts was all I needed to get this new project underway.
Have a browse through my web pages and let me know what you think! I'm excited by this and am hoping to be so darn busy......
Lots of love and happy fabric-ing!
