Whether reused or repurposed from an old, worn-out garment or off-cut leftover cloth from garment trimming, pieces of cloth can make stunning pieces of wall art when framed.
The most exciting part about fabric art is that it can be in any colour or texture, from denim, silk, lace, embroidery, cotton, and printed material with different images and patterns. Choosing to repurpose material is sustainable as it saves one from buying expensive canvas to make art and painting, as one can even paint over repurposed material.
