NEW IDEAS

MAHILA BROSCHES
We started this session with a new idea which came from Kerstin Nettelblad in Skane Syd.

We used Brittas logo and made a simple drawing and every woman got a couple of designs. After one week we have nov 76 embroideries, all are different.Next step is to complete the embroideries so they are nice and Brosches-like.This work we give now to a young man who suffers from diabetes,which is very costly because the insulin must be given every day. This family we try to give help to selfhelp, by for instance giving this 20 years old boy work. How much do you think the brosches can cost in Sweden?

Here is Maya with one of the brosches.

ANOTHER BRANCH IS STARTED
Alex a designer and danser from England designs chlothes and let them be sewn here.Alex is staying 6 months every year here in Jaisalmer. Now she is interested to let our women learn how to use and care for a sewingmashine and in a longer run let them do this sewing job.
Of course all our women were interested of this...
At this occation we also gave new material for Mahilas.

Frida is popular with her camera and her nice smile.

And after a two-hours session I look like this...
More next time!...
