Fashioning A New Life
Each of our Patchwork Crossbody Bags are a unique mix of reclaimed offcuts stitched together by survivors of exploitation.
Each finished piece is part of a much broader story of restoration.
It’s a fair wage. It's a stable job. It’s school fees for their children. It’s the opportunity to make something beautiful from fabric scraps that others have thrown away.
The Japanese call it Kintsugi. We call it Patchwork. And your purchase is one more piece of a survivors tapestry of stitching together a better life for themselves.
We made this bag to hold it all. Big enough for any adventure. Meaningful enough to carry the story of a life pieced back together.
Thank you for carrying this story, and for choosing to support the healing journey of the women of Not I But We.
