Shibori is one of dyeing textile techniques that produce fabrics with various colors and patterns. On the other hand, there are many housewives who depend their family income only on their husbands and need skills that are useful to improve family welfare. The community service team of USU has provided 1 unit of obras machine and 2 additional units of sewing machine to LKP Girly Mode. The team has also carried out a workshop to improve the skills of 12 housewives around the LKP.
