In a room with light-colored tiled floors and white walls, several women are engaged in textile work. In the foreground, one woman in a black outfit leans over another woman seated on the floor wearing a red headscarf and patterned top; they are surrounded by folded fabric and a measuring tape. In the background, two other women sit at separate sewing machines on a wooden bench, each focused on their work. A white garment hangs on the back of one chair. Along the wall, an ironing board with a blue iron stands beneath hanging tote bags and papers, and a framed piece of art is mounted on the wall. A window with a decorative grille lets in light from the right side of the room.

Facilitated by Mary Gracy

We tested sample bags in canvas cloth, checking shapes, sizes and construction against the buyer's requirements. The exercise showed us what we needed to improve before production started.
