When the lack of #sewing experience sends you #garments that don't fit, make #eyelets.

The project was very interesting. I chose upholstery fabric, which was insanely hard to cut and I used a denim needle to sew. Maybe I have ended up with a bulletproof vest 😁

I will attach silver chains to the eyelets, just need to find something that works like a carabiner but maybe circle rather than the traditional shape. Still proud of the double welted pockets through darts.

‘Don’t throw away your old #clothes – do this 1 thing instead’

#RepairCafes are popping up in the UK where volunteers are learning how to #repair, #mend and #fix #garments or #electronics to avoid buying new items

"A stitch in time may just save the planet as Britons’ nimble fingers do their bit to prevent 1.4billion garments from going to landfill. Nearly one in three adults (32%) have thrown away new clothes in the last years amid the rise of fast fashion.

"But retired nurse Debbie Kennedy, 60, is among the people who have joined a #RepairCafe where clothes are #mended. She described how attending the #GreenerAndCleanerHub’s #knitting and #crochet group in #Bromley, London, has also helped 'repair those bits of me that have been broken along the way'. Ms Kennedy said: 'As I was approaching retirement after 40 years of nursing, I wanted to ensure that I continued to feel productive and give something back to the community and maintain my health and wellbeing.'

Donning customary Quechuan garments like brimmed sombreros and colorful polleras, the Imillaskate collective combines a contemporary sport with time-honored cholita heritage. A new short documentary highlights the group’s style and dedication to the community.
