Elizabeth Fry born in 1780
In 1813 Elizabeth Fry made her first visit to Newgate prison where she observed women and children in terrible conditions. Elizabeth began working for the reform, campaigning for segregation of the sexes, female matrons for female prisoners, education and employment (often knitting and sewing) and religious instruction.

In 1817 Elizabeth Fry created the Association for the Improvement of Female Prisoners and along with a group of 12 other women lobbied authorities including Parliament. In the 1820s she inspected prison conditions, advocated reform and established more groups to campaign for reform. In 1823 prison reform legislation was finally introduced in Parliament.

Grandma's Laundry Tricks:

Do not Brush, Rub or Scrub the printed fabrics too hard to avoid damage to print quality.
Wash with similar colours to avoid staining or tint.
Please do not overuse the centrifuge, it only wrinkles the fabric.
Please do not overuse the dryer or use extrem heat, this only tears the fibres apart.
A dehumidifier is a great invention to dry the fabrics and clothes.
Dry the fabrics outdoors, if possible, but not under direct sunlight.
Environmentally awareness and the durability of clothing go hand in hand.
Do You really need to use the fabric softener or is white vinegar good enough?
