Learning to sew can be an incredibly rewarding skill! It opens up a world of creativity, allowing you to design and create your own clothing, home decor, and personalized gifts. Thank you to the IEC for helping purchase ribbon and fabric 15 young girls made skirts. A beautiful way to connect with cultural heritage and express personal identity. These skirts are more than just clothing: they're symbols of resilience, strength and cultural pride.
