If you've been to events at which we've tabled in England, or shopped on our Etsy site, you are no doubt familiar with the delightful sewn products we sell to raise funds for Kimbilio. We have a team of dedicated, talented volunteers that use vibrant fabrics, sourced in Congo, to create bunting, aprons, bags and other beautiful items. The income from selling these items is important to Kimbilio, and the lovely, recognizable products bring a bit of Congo to England and joy to our customers.
If you live in England and are interested in possibly joining our sewing team, please reach out to Ruth at Ruthedson74@gmail.com. No prior sewing experience is necessary! As of now, our sewers meet in Essex, Manchester and Gloucester, and we are open to the idea of starting up in other locations. You'll be contributing to the welfare of the Kimbilio children, and having fun and friendships along the way!
Of course, if you fancy yourself a shopper rather than a sewer, have a look at our Etsy site!
We are enormously grateful to our sewers.
