Can you spot it? Silly delighted to have one of our books for sale at Tate Modern shop. This little book is all about changing the way we think about fashion, one month at a time. Mending and making, not shopping and chucking. This holiday season I’m really trying to buy sustainable things from local shops, makers and small businesses. BTW Fletcher’s Almanac makes a perfect stocking filler 😉

Another cohort of darners, young and not so young,

Another cohort of darners, young and not so young, as part of @stroudtextiletrust ‘s Wooldays in France Lynch. The culture of making and mending is growing, though the majority of people still go shopping for fun. I know I used to.
STT do great work locally preserving skills and equipment from the hey day of the wool industry in our valleys. They are looking for volunteers and trustees if you have the time

What a lovely workshop we had on Friday making appliqué patches for mending. Lots of busy and creative hands were in action. We were inspired by the new book Beyond Darning by @hikaru_noguchi_design it was a @stroudbookfestival event and there’s more going on!
Thanks to Kat @atelierstroud and Josie @stroudtrinityrooms for all your help
