Custom Sewn Fashion at Silver Needle & Thread

Join me as I take the time to design, sew and create a new wardrobe after 16 years.

The cold reality of devastating practices widely used in the  textile industry to employ cheap labor.  When your clothes are made this way; they can be cheap.  Are you willing to pay for the slavery and exploitation of women? This inside video of Cambodia's garment manufacturing realities is a bit hard to watch but something anyone who wears clothes should see. What's the alternative you ask?   Know where your clothes are made by simply reading the label and refuse to purchase garments made in countries that employ slavery tactics, do not pay living wages, house factories in unsafe buildings, lock workers inside facilities, use fear tactics to force long hours and force people to work against their will.
