One of the many activities I ran during the Ruth Singer Studio in residence at Haymarket Shopping Centre was creating this coat.
Stitchers who came to workshops and free craft social events contributed some of masses of Suffolk puffs which coat is made from. I didn’t count them all but I suspect there are 300 or so…
I’ve wanted to make a garment from Suffolk puffs for years, and a community-collaboration was a great way to do it. The fronts are make up of the reds & blues while the back is mostly neutrals and grey-blacks.
