I’m grabbing every favourite piece of clothing I have around the house and mending it with a needle and thread
I’m not very good at it, but it’s not terribly hard to close up broken seams good enough for some use. It sure as heck beats buying a new pair of jeans for $70 just because I somehow destroy the crotch every year
I’m finding this to be really satisfying and relatively easy to do. Certainly I can develop better stitching technique and use better tools and material, but it’s easy enough to be good enough, or so it seems to me now
Ha! Tell me about it. I got into spinning and I can hardly stop myself. I’m looking down the barrel of dying my own wool now with local trees and 3d printing myself a rigid heddle loom. Fibre arts truly desire your entire soul once you get into it.
