The Stitching Project is operated by Kayef Stitching Project LLP and operates as a social enterprise dedicated to making fine

textile products... based in rural India, with a style that is a little bit ethnic and a lot

contemporary.The Stitching Project ethically produces

quality hand worked home wares, garments, and craft supplies and special orders for

private customers

The Stitching Project TeamOur work is produced by a team of people, Our products are labelled with the name of those who have contributed to the work from the weaving workshop, block printer, hand stitcher to the machinist.

We can track and label your work with all who contributed if you choose.

We are produce our products ethically. We have been accredited with Craftmark for our Kantha embroidery.

SustainabilityWe believe that it's important to be as transparent as possible about ethical, sustainable and eco friendly practices.We're not perfect, and there are still elements of our business that we would like to make even more eco-friendly, we try. Below is a list of practices we currently employ to minimise our impact on the earth:• We believe in fair pay for quality work, we largely work with rural women who are home based and

believe the opportunity for them to earn a fair income will positively impact on their lives and the health and education of their children

• We promote and use sustainable & fair trade cloths. For most of our handloom fabrics we have a direct relationship with the weaver families who produce them.

• We design for longevity, not conforming to short term, seasonal trends.• We use water based, solvent free inks. Hand block printing uses little water in clean-up. • We use natural indigo and iron black prints.• We are very careful to use or sell on all offcuts from the stitching workshop.
