Erlina joined the sewing group because her husband wanted
her to be involved in other activities aside from her chores as a housewife. From
Monday to Friday, Erlina has attended the workshop to learn the basic skill of
sewing. Her perseverance and desire to learn eventually led to her being able
to create bags. She never imagined that the bags she made would be displayed
and sold at various boutiques in Kuta, including the prestigious Novotel
Lombok. The sewing classes have
developed Erlina’s confidence, provided her the opportunity to make new friends
and have empowered her with an income. Her husband is proud of her for
developing a new skill and bringing in an income, all the while managing the
household tasks and the children.
