    You are doing what my grandmother did for many years. She was born in 1900, and she would take old clothes, worn out clothes and make bedding out of it, for her children, of which, there were many. She never 'sold' any of her items, but just provided for her family.

    Reroll the leftovers into fabric, what is old is new again!! Renaming what our ancestors did!! Putting pieces together to make a usable piece of fabric!! The serger makes that process so fast!! I love it!! Saving soooo much more than money, the environment and giving someone a JOB!! Well done young man!! from this 62 year old grandmother

    I’m a quilter. I’ve made several tshirt quilts. I have totes full of clothes from people who want a memorial quilt made from their loved ones clothes. This gives me the ideas and inspiration I was looking for. Great job.

    I was searching on how to dispose my old clothes properly and then what i found is something that struck me. Now I want to study fashion design to help our environment. I wanna be like him.

    I’ve been doing this idea with my old fabrics and clothes you can make lots of used out of it from blankets, clothes, rugs, bags, kitchen towel and many more, the possibilities are endless Happy sewing.

    I’m not sure if you’d consider it or not, but as I’ve been learning a lot of alternatives on my zero waste journey, consider also making reusable feminine products. Reusable pads are great in my option and with so many patterns and small pieces it can totally be an option for you with the smaller things your not sure what to do with. ☺️ hope you love the idea.

    That mosaic of David Bowie has given me a lot of idea of what I can do with my fabric scraps. Thank you so much for sharing your story!

    Really cool concept, I'm very inspired to make something out of my own bag(s*) of scraps. But also that cutting tool they showed in the factory example just cut through that massive pile of fabric like it was butter! That's amazing.

    This is so awesome, I love how those shirts look like, especially the ones with faces on them. It works! I hope to buy one when I get money.

    Definitely not the first person to use scraps for making full pieces of clothing but definitely one of if not the first companies to do this, and I think that is great.
