This multi-ways to wear upcycled Keffiyeh is modified by SamiArtStyle and is raising funds for HEAL Palestine - www.healpalestine.org I'm thrilled to see Nadia Sawalha looking so sassy in her versatile Keffiyeh! Thank you to the Sawalha sisters for supporting me - do please check out their fabulous Curly Cooks of Croydon show on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/live/TMTqpJVAD0A The Story:Playfully creative way to upcycle a box of keffiyehs that were meant to be cotton but turned up as polyester! Initially I thought I'd make bunting, but on opening the box and seeing the product and realising that all that fabric would be way too much bunting, I thought.... "What if I fold it into four and cut a hole out of the middle?" And lo behold, multi-ways to wear upcycled Keffiyeh! Bonus? The cut-out piece became bunting, thanks to my friend Jenny for spending time on the bunting!! I'm not a pro seamstress so Zig Zag stitch around the neckline (or hip or waist line depending how you wear it) was definitely my friend 😊 These were sold on the Sutton Friends of Palestine stall at a local EcoFair and helped raise over £900 for HEAL Palestine. Bonus? The donations were match-funded by an anonymous donor meaning SFOP actually raised £1800 for HEAL! Ahhhhmazing! I am donating 50% to HEAL with every Keffiyeh ordered.
