I mean, w- how is that handled?

Oh, no. Yeah.

Well, this is my always my joke.

Um, I tell people, and so if you remember, every time you, uh, wash your clothing, you put it in a hurricane box.

[laughs] I mean, it goes into the most aggressive washing machine, and it's wind and rain [laughs] and, and all the elements within one piece.

Um, but cotton is a very strong material, so I always do...

When we do a call for fabric, I always say, you know, sadly no clothing, no stretch because, you know, when it hangs on the, on the building it can't sag.

... sewing away? [laughs]

What are examples of fabric donations that would work well for this project?

Yeah, the reason we use cotton is that it's non-stretchy.

You know, one thing, just to kind of do a comment on fast fashion, everything has become stretch, especially in clothing.

So this is not that.

When you hang something on the building or drape, it has a stretch to it, and we want to take that out.

Cotton is also one of the strongest fabrics that we can use that's found in our homes.

And so what I'm looking for is cotton that's colorful, saturated in tone.

How do you get people to jump in and try this?
