I just thought you'd be interested to know, I represent an online ethical retailer - who are interested in finding journalists! I realise, this may not be your area of expertise, but I really think they'd love to hear about what you're doing! If you'd be interested, please feel free to email me: charlie@offsetwarehouse.com
Hello there Sarah,
I have been working with natural fibres in Nepal for a long time now and can supply you with fibre, yarns, textiles, as well as finished goods. Please have a look at www.heavenhemp.co.uk and www.wildweaves.co.uk to get an idea of what we do. I work with hemp, nettle, cactus, banana, bamboo . I also have a small workshop where we make bags, clothing and rugs from natural fibres. Hope to hear from you and would like to be your friend. Take care,
Udaya
HI SARAH,
Thank you for your comment, Are you still in Nepal? Would you like to India? I will show you the wonderful hand embroidery done by Megwal women living here in the desert. Wonderful fashion garments are created by them by applying the hand embroidery.
