Featured Speaker: Camille Tagle, Co-Founder of FABSCRAP
We’re thrilled to welcome Camille Tagle, Co-Founder of FABSCRAP, as our featured speaker. Camille will take us behind the scenes of the fashion industry’s fabric waste crisis — exploring how design and production practices contribute to climate change, and how FABSCRAP has diverted millions of pounds of fabric from landfills through reuse, recycling, and community action. It’s an eye-opening look at sustainability in the world of sewing and fashion, and how our community can be part of the solution.
Shop the Stash!
After the presentation, browse a curated selection of beautiful designer fabric, leather, trim, and even prototype samples — all rescued by FABSCRAP from landfill and available for purchase at thrift-store pricing. This is a rare chance to snag high-quality materials while supporting a great cause!
