3 Umbrellas

I used 3 umbrellas. One was my own broken one, one I got from a coworker who said it rained on the inside of this particular umbrella, and one I found on the subway platform (I got some weird looks picking this one up but that's OK.) I let the form of the fabric determine the pieces (actually a top and bottom) and it actually didn't require any cutting, just one seam ripping. Then I finished it off with detailing.

this is classic cradle to cradle, i think it was a very natural effort, not forced and certainly wearable. if form and function balance it feels right. good work.
