The second part of my two episode series with Gina Russell and Seonaid Burnie. I kōrero with Gina about her childhood surrounded by textile craft, how she embarked on her mission of bringing back the growing of textiles to Aotearoa. She speaks of her love for old looms and how she is envisioning a future where we come together and learn and create together in the community and grow the seed of a sustainable textile industry here in Aotearoa. We also get book recommendations and creative tips.
