Katie Jones Knit discussing Sustainability in Design at BCU

As many of you know, i'm a little bit interested in sustainability (alright...maybe a lot!) and i always love to hear about other designers or creatives sustainable practices. So it was lovely to hear Katie Jones speak at Birmingham City University about sustainability in design.

I really enjoyed learning about her sustainable practices that involve sourcing garments and repurposing them to give them a new life. The handmade touch to give the garments a unique finish was great and helped to give me some ideas of my own of things i can do to 're-fashion' some of my old clothes.
