Wonderful work done by 13 year old Anja Rožen.
Anja Rožen, a 13-year old elementary school student from Slovenia is the winner of the international contest Plakat MIRU. She was chosen among 600,000 children from all over the world.

"Finally ready to ship some completed bags to Solidarity Engineering. Using motherlode fabric for my usual strong (and strongly boring) bags. Motherlode is so tough I only used a single layer. I came up with a design that uses a single piece of fabric but still has no exposed fabric edges" -- Auntie Eric 🧵
