Stitch, patch, and repair your favourite denim & more
A Slow Fashion guide for a well-loved wardrobe
Mending Matters explores sewing on two levels: First, it includes more than 20 hands-on projects that showcase current trends in visible mending that are edgy, modern, and bold - but draw on traditional stitching. It does all this through just four very simple mending techniques: exterior patches, interior patches, slow stitches, darning, and weaving. In addition, the book addresses the way mending leads to a more mindful relationship to fashion and to overall well-being. In essays that accompany each how-to chapter, Katrina Rodabaugh explores mending as a metaphor for appreciating our own naturally flawed selves, and she examines the ways in which mending teaches us new skills, self-reliance, and confidence, all gained from making things with our own hands.

Brexit and Taxes
Thanks to our nation's ill-advised exit from the European Union, we have had to change how we sell to our international customers.
International customers will not be charged UK VAT (20%) on our products. When your parcel arrives in your home country, you will be charged VAT at your local rate (and there may be a handling fee.) This will be determined by the customs form that will be attached to your parcel. Please note, all added taxes and fees are your responsibility to pay.
Sorry, we did not vote for this.
