There is no piece of used clothing that does not have a usable inch. We can use these scraps to make a lot of different sizes and shapes. 1. You can cut the stitch shapes directly and use them in hot couture (Damascus rose Top) 2. Cut out a system consisting of a grid and shapes that, when assembled, give you the shape of an (X) (pasha tent cape) 3. Cut long strips and insert them into the grid. (Tall Palm dress) 4. Using banana waste to turn it into threads to weave the shapes we need (lemon blossom bag) 5. Use a natural dye such as indigo (Moon of Bethlehem blouse)
