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

Its just Creative on Beehaw at the moment. I think until we get so much sewing content that nothing else gets seen, all crafty things should be together. Whats the point in having specific craft forums if they are each only getting a post a day?
