What is Sustainable Sewing?
What is sustainable sewing?
Did you know?
All our pattern products use recycled materials. And we’re proud to be part of a lasting tradition where makers reuse and reinvent our patterns, owning them for many years after they first bought them.
Although paper can be both biodegradable and easily recyclable, it can also be the product of deforestation or poor forestry practices if not sourced sustainably.
As well as using recycled paper in our production we work with accredited paper mills to source our stock:
– Our tissue paper comes from a FSC certified mill.
– The guide sheet paper comes from a FSC & SFI certified mill.
– And our envelope paper comes from a FSC, SFI and PEFC certified mill.
