Everything is made with an environmentally conscious approach. Her mission is to live in a world with no landfill fabric. That means we reduce waste, create slow fashion that can withstand fashion through time, and inspire up-cycling. Sewl Sister continues to create beauty and sustainability on the planet, through using landfill and throw-away fabrics, as well as other well-known fabrics.
Sewl Sister also gives back to organizations that support survivors of human trafficking. Shankari is working to create a Sewing Room in local communities that will serve to teach sewing for FREE to survivors of human trafficking.
Sewl Sister continues to create a world of love, power, passion, connection, and joy through the art of sewing!
