The Milaya Project

In a remote refugee camp, South Sudanese women embroider designs on bedspreads & pillowcases. They’re now for sale in our online shop.

Today we’re opening our online shop! We’ll be selling a limited number of pillowcases, wall hangings, and small pieces for preorder. Much of the work is done by Rose Asha and the milaya-making women’s collective she runs in Bidibidi refugee camp in Uganda. https://t.co/Bod09UClGG

It's official! Thanks to everyone who donated to the Kickstarter we hit our goal and are raising past it.

We got 17 days to go and you can still support a milaya artist and pre-order their beautiful milayas here:
