Real Syntacticthe dog chewed a hole in my pillowcase, so I patched it with a muslin scrap <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/MakeDoAndMend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MakeDoAndMend</a>

QuixoticgeekThe magnetic clasp on a friend's bag fell off, so they asked if I could repair it. A new clasp was bought, but to install it required access to the lining, I undid a row of stitching, then had to redo the stitches by hand. Used a simple saddle stitch. It's not the prettiest sewing I've ever done but it works. And the bag can now be easily closed again. Took less than an hour. <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/MakeDoAndMend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MakeDoAndMend</a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/VisibleMending" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VisibleMending</a> <a href="https://social.v.st/tags/RightToRepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RightToRepair</a>

KymberlySewing/knitting - 100 day project update

Jenny AndrewMy grandma would be so proud of me. I’ve been steaming the living shit out of scarves, hanging wool dresses and blazers out in the sunshine, and darning jumpers! It’s all very <a href="https://freeradical.zone/tags/makeDoAndMend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#makeDoAndMend</a>… but with Alexander McQueen skulls on.

swachterOne of my reusable bags got ripped on a fence as we were walking home. So I fixed it. <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/visiblemending" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#visiblemending</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/solarpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#solarpunk</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/makedoandmend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#makedoandmend</a>

swachterEDIT: this is getting shared enough that I’m starting to panic. YOU MUST DM ME TO JOIN. THERE IS ONLY SPACE FOR SIX PEOPLE. In the spirit of “fuck it, we ball” I am hosting an experimental Minor Mending Meeting on Monday, March 3 from 6-7:30p near Davis Square. DM me for location; there is only space for six people. If interest warrants I can host another one later. You: bring a clean item of clothing that needs a minor repair (a button replaced, a tear patched) and an intrepid spirit of fixing thingsMe: bring an assortment of buttons and patches and thread and needles and some reasonable know-how and helpful diagrams and encouraging spirit of guidance and repair. If this goes well and interest warrants, I’d love this to be a regular thing. <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/SomervilleMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SomervilleMA</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/community" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#community</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/diy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#diy</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/makedoandmend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#makedoandmend</a>

FibroJediIt's a wee bit messy, but I've mended my <a href="https://gamepad.club/tags/denim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#denim</a> jeans, which I had torn along this pocket edge.It's a good job that I don't see people, really. Most of my trousers are re-mended, stained with house-cleaning products, baggy from when I was larger, and other things. <a href="https://gamepad.club/tags/makedoandmend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#makedoandmend</a> <a href="https://gamepad.club/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://gamepad.club/tags/jeans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#jeans</a>

swachterI spent a bit of time today recovering from the weekend and clearing out my mending pile. This bag from Market Basket had some places where the panels were pulling apart from each other and the binding was falling off. I pulled off the crummy binding and replaced it with some nylon webbing, and ta-da, bag is useful again. From a purely capitalist perspective, this is a terrible use of time, right? I could just buy a new bag from MB for, like, what, $5? $10? And I could have used that time in Economically Productive Pursuits to Increase The GDP, and someone in an exploited country could have made another one and shipped it across the ocean, and in a couple years that binding would rip and I’d buy a new one and we’d just keep doing that dance until the heat death of the universe. Or I could spend the time and effort to keep it out of a landfill for a little longer. So I did. And it’s a small thing but it’s better than nothing. Bonus: bag is now significantly gayer. We can fix things if we take the time. <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/makedoandmend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#makedoandmend</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/fixityourself" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fixityourself</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/mending" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mending</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/moveslowandfixthings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#moveslowandfixthings</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/visiblemending" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#visiblemending</a>
