They are among a group of 25 women patients, who have learned the art of making crafts at one of the Industrial Therapy Centres (ITC) of the Institute of Mental Health (IMH). The products on display included flower baskets, photo frames (embossed painting), wire baskets, jute bags and purses, jute files and table mats made out of wool, said a social welfare officer of IMH.
