Extreme Allowance - Open source paper templates collection
A curated collection of open-source sewing projects designed to teach the craft of sewing while fostering awareness about clothing manufacturing. Have you ever wondered how your clothes are made? What value would you give to your clothes if you sewed them yourself?
Inspired by designers like Victor Papanek and Enzo Mari, Extreme Allowance aims to educate users on making informed choices when buying clothes, encouraging them to become prosumers. By engaging in DIY projects, users can appreciate the craftsmanship and effort involved in creating garments.
The collection includes projects like a dry bag, the silk-road bag by Rayon Vert, a traditional 1800s tie-on pocket, and a chalk bag for climbing. Each project comes with a paper template and detailed instructions, neatly folded inside a soft cover, making the process accessible and enjoyable.
