How are they made?
 Betina Khumalo hand-embroidered wool on recycled bags of corn flour created cushions of geometric and colored patterns. She learned this technique on her own as a hobby. It is his mother, who has taught him since very small techniques of crafts like beading and embroidery. Thanks to her, Ms. Khumalo has become a skilled craftsman. She develops all this knowledge and techniques by working for a craft group.
Partnership and development.

Together, they work on the refining and development of Ms. Khumalo’s technique to produce the cushions, with a colored cotton or polycotton fabric. This duo worked well because the cushions are now marketed all over the world.
