Nettle Fibre Processing
by Sally Pointer

"Follow along as I prepare fresh stinging nettles for coarse, medium or fine fibres. This method does not require any retting and only needs simple tools. Perfect for cordage making, or use fine fibre for nettle spinning."

About to go spend more money on materials to repair a sweater than the sweater is worth. Feeling very good about this.

Getting into visible mending is so funny cause I saw my kid come home in this and got legitimately excited.

I've almost got this #quilt together, from a nice mix of new fabric (from neighborhood bougie quilt shop Domesticity), gifted fabric from Florida friends, and a whole three duvet covers from a clothing by the pound thrift here in #Baltimore

Imperfect, lazily pressed if at all, and my joining leaves much to be desired - but I'm getting it done! Once it's sewn/bound/quilted I'll triage what I'm truly terrible at and the next one can be a few hairs better.
