MAKER STORY · FLOWER CHARM

A Flower That Carries Love

A handmade flower that carries more than beauty. Crafted from handwoven Chongming Tubu by our community of makers, each one is a small symbol of care, connection and inclusive craftsmanship.

MARKET · LONDON

Meeting Our Community at Battersea Power Station

Our first market at Battersea Power Station was a chance to meet our community and share the story of Chongming Tubu — and to see how a handwoven cloth can connect people through warmth, memory and care.

WORKSHOP · LONDON

Indigo Dye Workshop

Our first indigo dye workshop in London brought people together through traditional craft, quiet conversation and mindful making — a slower, more sustainable way to create by hand.

WFOND Adaptive Sewing Kit laid out flat — coloured threads, iron-on patches, easy-grip scissors, a seam ripper, a bear-shaped tape measure and a linen drawstring bag, labelled “every stitch brings freedom”.

COLLABORATION · INCLUSIVE DESIGN

Schneider Electric × WFOND

Together with the Schneider Electric Volunteer Association (China), we turned inclusive design into action — donating Adaptive Sewing Kits that help older adults and people with disabilities repair, create and live more independently.
