Using production waste and used clothing, the designer creates new unique items inspired by Estonian heritage culture. Since practically everything in Katre&#8217;s creations is based on reuse, preliminary work, making things and designing are even more complicated &#8211; folding existing pieces is more time-consuming than cutting parts from a large ready-made fabric. The entire creation process takes place by hand in P\u00f5ltsamaa, so each product bears the touch of a master. The designer produces very small quantities, making them unique and exclusive. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73ab010 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"73ab010\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-11455\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-scaled-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/katrearula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Katre-loomeprotsess-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-182dff0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"182dff0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><b>Author&#8217;s Techniques and Unique Patterns<\/b><\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36d2c39 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"36d2c39\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8648abe elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8648abe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Katre Arula&#8217;s work is characterized by pattern motifs made in the author&#8217;s techniques, which draw inspiration from folk art.
