    Hi Maki, you may be interested in our Japanese project. At the moment we use ethically produced wool but will be adding cotton in due course. The project involves four designs: sakura, chou chou, kiku and nihon - spring, summer, autumn and winter which we call 'The Four Seasons' range. We have just finished a joint venture with Gray's School of Art and hope to take the ir outfits to a show in Japan in the autumn. If you look at the pics on my profile you will see the sakura.
