My youngest did textiles at college, it's still out there🙂 I'm keen to help with reskilling / social mending stuff once I'm awee bit settled. Hand sewing is the biz, though! Pics when you get to it? I love to see folks' mending & upcycling projects!

I wasn't wearing these chokers as I didn't get on with the sprung-loop fastenings. Now that they tie instead, they always fit and I wear them often.

2 velvet choker necklaces. One black with a metal Sun-Moon pendant, one green with a metal bird's skull pendant, both have braided ties.

First I hemmed a tiny patch then sewed it inside the hole, then added extra stitches to quilt the patch and garment together.

Two long pins hold a tiny hemmed square in place on black fabric, and a needle threaded with black cotton is stuck into the fabric too.

From the front, the completed mend only just shows tiny stitches holding the patch in place on the underside.

Today is International Repair Day, so I'll share a recent mend or two. This was a too-small shirt which I cut in two down the back and inserted a panel assembled from remnants of this dragonfly print. Hand-stitched it all. Fits me now! 1/?

Blue fabric panels joined neatly with hand-stitching. The central panel has dragonflies printed on it.

So here's a thing re. The NHS trans healthcare thing, loudly for the people at the back : TRANS PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO SUFFER WORSE HEALTHCARE OUTCOMES BECAUSE SOME BIGOTED CUNTS ARE MADE UNCOMFORTABLE BY THEIR EXISTENCE. That is all. You can go about your business. Move along.

Excellent from Sheffield Green Party pointing out reservations working with Labour whilst their government arms a genocide. If Labour chooses to destabilise local councils because they want to play party politics - then they can own the consequences for the city. 👏🏼

Implicit in this too is the vast unpaid, unnecessary workload we shoulder so as to interact with essential civic/financial/medical/utility orgs (assuming access to a modern/charged/in-data smart device & office hours 'free' time) especially if one must change name/address/email, or correct an error.

It's a deep breath in and dove sort of piece but you come out of it feeling 'Yes! This!' which is better than beaten-down muddled why-is-everything-getting-worse. Very worth a read!

Anyone need a genuinely *nice* story for this Wednesday? "Takahashi thought the lost barrel might be adrift somewhere on the Bering Sea by now. Or, he imagined an 'Alaskan bear wearing my down jacket or like, playing my flute...'"

Jun Takahashi was stunned when he saw the online post: someone in the Yukon bush had found a canoe barrel full of his mildew-y camping gear, and his long-lost flute.

Innit though! How to tell a story in a song, with nothing feeling forced into song-shape. Definitely an early influence on my songwriting.

Couldn't not! So there I was, grabbing small mouthfuls at every micro-instrumental, swallowing in haste, & launching into the next verse along with old Gordy. Atalanta had her golden apples; for me, it's a long-beloved narrative song I can't not sing. 2/2 #folksong #storyteller #Below #maritime

Thomas put some Gordon Lightfoot on this morning at breakfast. The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald came on just as I'd sorted my breakfast bowl with chopped strawberries on the cereal, and poured the milk. I mean, I had to sing along, didn't I? 1/?

Today I filled a catbox with plants, ran out of patience with the bank, ate possibly too many biscuits (chocolate malted milk), had lovely friends visiting, and performed my song 'Gentle Neighbours' for, well, my gentle neighbours. Put down the phone, me. Drink your chai and read your book.

When you iron a remnant of fabric & suddenly you have a stylised leaping green dog, which is rather lovely! #AccidentalArt

Green linen scrap on a wooden board. The angular remnant resembles a leaping 'dog' with a triangular nose & ear, upright tail, and outstretched forepaw.

For clarity, you send these to friends you do NOT want to get eaten by a giant folkloric cat. If you have the other sort of friends, we can't help you, I'm afraid. The Yule Cat will be more than happy to do so!
