Sewing and Community






An article in Vogue Living Australia (May/June ed) caught my eye. It's called "Sweat Shop" - a "cafe couture", a new creative concept situated in St Martin, Paris. Imagine 10 work stations equipped with 10 SINGER sewing machines and one communal table. Welcome to a world of creativity, of DIY ethics, a piping hot tea and funky furniture. A serene atmosphere where work and relaxation go hand in hand. Check it out.
