Sunday is “Fabric Manipulation Day” and I haven’t taken part for the last three months. It didn’t look too good for this month either, when time and ideas were sparse. So instead I mended an old favorite pair of pants; at least that was something productive to do.
And how things often go, at the end of the evening I was in full experimentation mode with needle and thread.
Sooooooo…..see you on Sunday!
I didn’t even think of mending as a way of material manipulation. You made me aware of it.
I am sure you have seen those antique, heavily mended japanese boro textiles. Beautiful! http://www.kimonoboy.com/catalog.html?category=boro
