Even including fabric scraps from sewing, there's no way we dispose of even 5kg worth of textiles per year in this house! Obviously somebody is pitching considerably more than the average, huh?Louisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685532773952211627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12698509.post-9380891947827304922014-01-01T09:13:25.499-08:002014-01-01T09:13:25.499-08:00So glad the prezzie arrived.

I read a survey done by GVRD several years ago that determined about 20 kilos of textiles go into the landfill per person per year. And the sorters at Value Village might bale it and send it to the third world. I think I am just going to bite the bullet, clear the shelves and send those pants with a wonky waistband and the bras with broken underwires that I never got around to replacing to the dump, and then atone mightily from here on in. You have been doing such a fabulous job making your own clothes that I think you have earned a few carbon credits.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17188002198879523397noreply@blogger.com
