Embark on a transformative exploration as Geri Berman, a dressmaker with an extraordinary talent for Sashiko, shares her journey of personal growth that transcends the fabric of her creations. With nearly half a million followers on Instagram, Geri has stitched together a narrative that's as colourful as her designs, teaching us that crafting can be a direct path to understanding and amending one's own heart. I open up about the themes of grief and self-reflection that resonate deeply with me, inviting listeners on a candid voyage through personal anecdotes and the cathartic power of a positive mindset.As Geri and I weave through our experiences, we uncover the seismic effects of shifting perspectives. Imagine redefining mistakes as opportunities. We discuss resilience, the ability to adapt to life's unexpected turns, and how historical insights and our own life stories underscore the importance of embracing change. Our conversation is one of inspiration, spotlighting how altering your outlook can lead to a richer, more textured life.The episode culminates in a heartfelt discussion on the strength found in sharing vulnerabilities and the importance of community support in our creative and personal endeavors. Geri's openness about facing her own dark chapters and emerging with a renewed sense of purpose is nothing short of powerful. And as your host, I extend an invitation to you, our listeners, to engage with us, participate in our creative community, and find solace and strength in the collective pursuit of crafting not just art, but a life filled with self-discovery and healing.Support the show

I've had the pleasure of showcasing the work of different talented artists in recent episodes. And today I continue that pattern with textile artist Kate Ward. I was immediately connected to Kate and all of her life wisdom. Tune in to hear us cover many different topics, including how to use your time well, how to change your habits to reduce your stress, and even how practicing stitching can be a source of wonderful meditation and pain management.Kate Ward is a textile artist with a love of travel and the esoteric with a holistic approach to creativity. She is passionate about textiles, environmental issues and living a meaningful life. Zen Stitching is the ultimate combination of her passions and by embracing the beautiful and practical designs of Sashiko, she is mending her clothes, reducing waste and encouraging mindfulness through the act of sewing.Timestamps:•[11:33] “One of the great virtues about stitching is you don't need a great deal of materials to be able to get started, like, you literally need a needle, some thread and some fabric.” •[12:40] “The ability to be able to sit and create and let the mind be free, whilst the hands were busy was really beneficial…”•[13:56] Christine and Kate discuss feeling like time is so compressed and in such short supply and where can we find the time for art and creativity… for being able to clear our mind a bit.•[22:38] “I could see stitching and the arts being a healing tool for people who are feeling overwhelmed, who are feeling like they are not in touch with their feelings and or their intuition.” For more information on the Make Time for Success podcast, visit: https://www.maketimeforsuccesspodcast.comGain Access to Dr. Christine Li's Free Resource Library where she offers you 12 downloadable tools and templates to help you bypass the impulse to procrastinate.

This episode is a fun exploration into the qualities of, and differences between, visible and invisible mending. What are their strengths and when are they likely to be victorious? Taking a deeper look into these approaches to mending can give us a clearer idea of how we want to tackle each repair job we are presented with. Which one will you deploy for your next mending project? Support the podcast over on Patreon! Basic materials mending: Strong thread suitable for hand sewing to stitch up holes, rips and tears, and for stitching on patches. If you're likely to try darning, some darning yarn, or possibly leftover knitting yarn should also be in your mending materials stash. Fabric scraps for making patches. These can be harvested from old garments that have gone beyond wearability, and leftovers from previous sewing projects. It's useful to have a mix of woven and knit fabrics and different thicknesses so you can create patches for different types of garments. A selection of buttons in a range of sizes. Although pretty much anything goes in terms of holes or shanks, colour, shape or texture, a replacement button will have to be the same size or a little smaller than the missing one. You can always close up a button hole a bit if the new button is a bit smaller, but you're inviting a bit of a headache if you try to make the buttonhole bigger to accommodate a larger replacement button. Scraps of fusible interfacing. These are useful to strengthen a weakened area, particularly because it'll give you more grace with your choice of fabric for patching, or your choice of reinforcing stitch. Eventually you may find it useful to also have a collection of Iron on patches, lengths of bias binding, and pieces of elastic in different widths, but you can gather those as the need arises. Basic equipment for mending: Hand sewing needles are a must. A little pack of different sizes to match with different thickness of fabric will make your life easier. Scissors that cut fabric and snips to cut thread. A tape measure or other measuring tool. These can help you figure out how big to cut a patch or what length and width bias binding you might need. Some kind of fabric marking tool such as a water or heat erasable pen or a chalk pencil. A seam ripper AKA stitch ripper or quick unpick. Pins and safety pins to keep what you're working on in place. An iron will also be handy to apply the fusible interfacing and prepare neat looking patches. Certain visible mends might be quicker or longer lasting if a sewing machine is used. Mending inspiration and knowledge: Books: Mending Matters by Katrina Rodabaugh which is all about subtle, visible patching and decorative Sashiko stitching. Modern Mending by previous-guest Erin Lewis-Fitzgerald is a wonderful primer on all sorts of mending techniques and encourages creativity at every step.

In this episode, Kendall and rachel talk about: * The art of mending things beautifully (the words rachel was trying to remember are Kintsugi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kintsugi) and Sashiko (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sashiko), in that order) * The art of mending things not so beautifully, aka hacking off the bottom of your favorite pants and adding bits of your favorite shirt so they fit better (Kendall subsequently found some photos, but none of them from after the shirt addition...) * Why Kendall sounds echo-ey (also, maybe this is why there's an annoying echo of rachel throughout this recording, apologies) * Why we're talking about systems thinking: https://twitter.com/johncutlefish/status/1518361842342453248 (no longer pinned) * Context, and why it rules from orbit * How seeing the big picture can be frustrating when one has limited power or scope * Optimization, in a shockingly nerdy gaming analogy * When it's hard to share context due to business volatility * Wait, what actually do we mean when we say systems thinking? * How systems thinking is actually largely about understanding people and their motivations * A former podcast guest we both think is a super impressive systems thinker but did not name ;) Thanks to John Cutler (@jcutlefish on Twitter) for a thought-provoking list!

This episode is something of a love letter to my favourite mending technique: patching! Mending with patches is a beginner friendly option for giving most types of clothing and fabrics a longer life. Depending on your choice of patching fabric, it can be a bold statement, or a subtle repair. It offers plenty of opportunities for creativity, it can be achieved without a sewing machine AND can be deployed when other mending options fail you. Expanding on the patching sections from my book, ‘Mend it, Wear it, Love it!', in this solo episode I offer up ideas for creative patching and share practical advice on achieving a successful repair. Plus I talk through the steps for two different approaches to patching for those who are new to garment mending. Support the podcast over on Patreon! The step by step techniques outlined in this episode are adapted from my book ‘Mend it, Wear it, Love it!' which you can find HERE. List of materials and equipment you'll need for basic patching: Fabric to make patch Fabric scissors Iron Tape measure Fabric marking tool Hand sewing needle Thread (colour to match or contrast with your patch) Safety pins (use regular pins if your fabric is likely to be damaged by safety pins) Thread snips or small scissors A basic running stitch technique is shown in THIS VIDEO. A basic whip stitch technique is shown in THIS VIDEO. Examples of Sashiko-style stitching that I have previously attempted:

Five pairs. If you only had five pairs of shoes to get you through every single possible scenario in your life, what would you choose? We make our cases for shoes past, present, and future that are up to the task. We also discuss New York state's upcoming bill banning polyfluoroalkyls (PFAs) that are used in millions and millions of garments every year and have serious health and environmental consequences.

Denim. Why is it funny? Is it because it's so ubiquitous or is there something comedic inherent to its nature that makes you laugh when you see it fashioned into a couch or boots or sunglasses? We attempt to answer this and other deep questions, like "Are the provisions in the new FABRIC Act proposed by US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand going to be enough to bring back American manufacturing jobs?" and "Should Albert soak his deadstock 501s?"

Uta erzählt über Sashiko Nähmaschine, Improv und Modern Quilten mit Nancy Crow.

On the face of it repairing and reinforcing textiles simply prolongs the life of our clothes and helps minimize textile waste, things worth having – but for many, it also delivers much more than that. The French sculptor, Louise Bourgeois said: ‘The act of sewing is a process of emotional repair’, it helps to centre us, and tells us stories about ourselves and the resilience of our families and communities.    This episode looks at the case for mending and thinks about how different cultures approach this, from the wool-rich districts of Yorkshire with their darning to the rural areas of Japan with Sashiko and Boro textiles, and onto Indian traditions of telling stories in Kantha cloth and making something completely new out of something old.   Thanks to Claire Wellesley Smith, who is a community worker in Bradford, West Yorkshire, Hikaru Noguchi who lives in Tokyo and is an expert darner now writing a new book about Sashiko, and Ekta Kaul, who tells stories of place, history, and belonging through thread and fabric. If you go to Haptic and Hue’s website at www.hapticandhue.com/listen, you will find a full transcript of this podcast and pictures of some of the fabrics and techniques we talk about. You can also sign up there to get these podcasts directly in your inbox, as well as having a chance to win some of the textile-related gifts I give away with each episode.   If you want to see more of Claire Wellesley Smith’s work you can find it on her website: http://www.clairewellesleysmith.co.uk/  or on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/cwellesleysmith/   Her new book: Resilient Stitch: Wellbeing and Connection in Textile Art is published by Batsford and can be ordered from independent booksellers at https://uk.bookshop.org/a/260/9781849946070   Hikaru Noguchi’s website is at http://hikarunoguchi.bigcartel.com/, and she on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/hikaru_noguchi_design/   Her book called Darning: Repair, Make, Mend can be found at https://uk.bookshop.org/books/darning-repair-make-mend/9781912480159. Her new book on Sashiko is due to be published next year.   Ekta Kaul’s work can be seen on her website at https://www.ektakaul.com/. She is on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/ekta_kaul/. Ekta is running virtual courses on Kantha stitching and a variety of other classes over the next few months – you can find details at: https://www.ektakaul.com/product-category/embroidery-masterclasses/

My mom has requested “a new hobby” for Christmas which has sent me spinning. Any ideas? She’s very artsy and already gardens and writes fiction.

He likes food/eating/cooking but had a heart attack 3 years ago so we’re not allowed to do fun things (unless they’re low sodium/cholesterol).

Listen to BARN Fiber Arts Studio lead, Fran Fuller, talk about the studio’s mission of community building through education, community service projects, and inspiring creativity in a variety of disciplines. Fran is seeing her community of artisans come together despite the pandemic. Through weekly Virtual Studio sessions using Zoom and online classes, members are engaged, and are supporting each other’s work.   The Studio has attracted the attention of participants from other cities, not just Bainbridge Island. And recently began a collaboration with the Seattle artists known as Shibaguys. Their award-winning crochet, knit, and sewing designs have been featured in and on the covers of dozens of publications. The dynamic duo will be offering additional live virtual workshops this Fall. Fran will tell us about their popular Sashiko and Boro stitching classes, and the upcoming classes on Kogin Sashiko and more.      htt

Scrivendo l’articolo (che puoi ascoltare qui su Audio-à-porter) sull’antica tecnica del Sashiko adottata dalle moderne pratiche di moda sostenibile, avevo deciso di provare in prima persona ad applicarla. Improvvisamente si è infatti accesa una lampadina e mi è sembrata l’idea perfetta per quei jeans chiari accantonati nell’armadio da 10 (15?) anni, in qualche lavaggio sbiaditi vicino al ginocchio. Capita anche a te di non accettare di rinunciare a un capo a cui tieni?Puoi trovare le foto dell'esperimento sul sito di Dress ECOde:https://dress-ecode.com/2020/06/23/vita-da-dress-ecode-sullonda-dellarticolo-riguardo-il-sashiko/Voce: Arianna De BiasiMusica: Hearthwarming di Kevin MacLeod (Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License)Dress ECOde® è un marchio registrato - allrightsreserved©

Juliet Walsh chats about the technology behind Gutermann sewing threads that make our projects successful. Today Juliet delves into all the threads, including cotton threads, quilting threads, sew-all threads, silk threads, elastic threads, metallic threads and the list goes on.

In episode 6 of Style With Substance we investigate why our clothes so often end up in landfill. It turns out that caring for your clothes is an important aspect of extending the life of your garments. Did you know that the average lifecycle of a garment in the UK is only 2.2 years? Every year we send around 300,000 tones of used clothing to Landfill and that’s just in the UK. According the WRAP, if we were to wear an item of clothing for just 9 more months, we can minimise its carbon, water and waste footprint by 20-30%. So whats stopping us?  We chatted to  Lucinda O'Connor, Founder of clothing repair brand Clothes Doctor  to find out why mending matters and what you can do to love your clothes for longer. Why Don't We repair Our Clothes?Many of us are guilty of discarding things once a button has fallen off, or a zip has become stuck. The fast fashion we buy isn't meant to last, and so once it breaks, which it inevitably will... we chuck it in the bin. The solution to the problem seems simple. Buy Less, Choose Well, Make It Last. But hands up if you invested in something, then left it languishing in the back of your wardrobe because it had a stain on it, or the fit wasn't quite right? In her book, 'How to Break Up With Fast Fashion,' Lauren Bravo bemoans an era in which none of us know how to sew or wash our clothes! And she's right. A lot of us wouldn’t know where to begin when it comes to mending or alterations. Luckily mending is becoming cool again thanks to craftivists like Bryony at Tickover,  Katerina Rodabaugh  and Molly Martin (our fave Sashiko repairer). Trusted Clothing CareFor those of us who don't know our thimbles from our thread, there are some incredible companies out there who have made it their business to care for our clothes. So you can wear them and love them for longer. Whether there is a scratch on your favourite leather handbag, or a pesky moth hole in your cashmere knit, they have you covered. In this episode we are speaking to Lulu O'Connor, Founder of Clothes Doctor. They know that the major hurdle standing in the way of you and the long life wear of your clothes is being able to fix and clean them. So Lulu created a company that would collect your items for repair or alternation and send them off the experts to sort for you. Clothes Doctor found that the most common issue when throwing out clothes was usually a broken zip. However dropped hems, missing buttons and moth holes were also high on the list. Not only do they have the expert hand to mend your garment, they will work hard to source the correct replacement zips, buttons and threads.How Important Is It To Clean Your Clothes ProperlyAs we have learnt from fashion icons like Stella McCartney and Victoria Beckham, you don't have to wash your clothes all the time to keep them in good shape. Good storage, spot cleaning and a little attention are all they need to really shine. Washing, especially at high temperatures and when followed by tumble drying, degrades fibres over time. Not to mention the effect of micro plastics washed out of your synthetic clothes having a detrimental effect on the environment. Clothes Doctor offer eco friendly cleaning solutions too, as well as helpful tips on how to care for your clothes.With thanks to our wonderful guest Lucinda O'Connor, Founder of Clothes DoctorMentioned In The PodcastEAC (Environmental Auditing Committee) Fixing Fashion: Clothing Consumption & Sustainability Sashiko RepairClothes Doctor Clothing CareClothes Doctor Tips For Washing Clothing WRAP How to break up with fast fashion by Lauren Bravo Please Support Us & Join Our CommunityThevendeur.co.ukInstagramFacebookTwitter CreditsHost Lucy Kebbell Theme created by Joe Murgatroyd

Sarah Wroot brings a reverence to her work with cloth, whether it's spinning, weaving, or stitching. This issue explores her passion for making and preserving textiles. Cloth can derive value from the care that went into its making, the emotional resonance of using it, its connection to the past, or its physical and symbolic protection. Sarah developed and stitched a hat inspired by a brightly colored hat from Uzbekistan. She spun the yarn for weaving the cloth and embroidering the motifs on it. She describes the process in "Uzbekistan by Hat," Spin Off Summer 2014. (https://shop.longthreadmedia.com/products/spin-off-summer-2014-digital-edition) After seeing a historic textile collection at the Victoria & Albert Museum, Sarah embarked on a quest to recreate an 18th-century fabric called cassemire. You can find her articles about spinning for the fabric (https://spinoffmagazine.com/18th-century-woven-cloth-cassimere/) and finishing the woven cloth (https://spinoffmagazine.com/18th-century-weaving-fulling-cloth-shearing-swatches/) on the Spin Off website. You can find more details about these explorations and her other pursuits at her website, wroot.com (http://www.wroot.com/).

Le armoniose geometrie che deliziano gli occhi e la mente e la filosofia sottostante collocano il sashiko sul podio delle ottime pratiche della moda sostenibile. Questa antica tecnica giapponese si fa amare per tanti concetti a cui rimanda: il valore dei tessuti come risorsa preziosa, la cura per la manutenzione dei nostri abiti, l'estetica e l'etica del rammendo, l'opposizione allo spreco e alla fast fashion, il lato bello del riuso.Puoi scoprire di più ascoltando l'audioarticolo di Dress ECOde, che puoi anche leggere qui:https://dress-ecode.com/2020/05/08/sashiko-una-pratica-antica-riscoperta-dalla-moda-sostenibile-moderna-per-riparare-e-abbellire-indumenti-con-armoniose-geometrie/Voce: Annamaria ViscoFoto: Sashiko Kimono, 19th century Japan, Meiji period (1868–1912) Indigo-dyed plain-weave cotton, quilted and embroidered with white cotton thread; Overall: 51 1/8 x 49 1/2 in.

In this episode, we sit down with sashiko artist Jessica Marquez of Miniature Rhino. Jessica shares about the custom kit she's put together for The Crafter's Box including her in-depth video tutorial and the tools & materials she's curated from her own studio space.  Sashiko is a craft founded in rural Japan. When making precious fabrics from seeds, the art of sashiko was developed to mend, strengthen and reinforce garments for longevity. With a name meaning “little stabs”, this technique creates a design of running stitches through swaths of fabric. As time went on, simple running stitches were developed into more intricate patterns. In this workshop, Jessica teaches the foundations of the sashiko technique - we’ll explore both beginning and advanced pattern and shape making, building out several sashiko samplers and finally a large scale custom pillow project for the home.  Learn More: https://thecraftersbox.com/2020-03-featured-maker/

One of the best things about working with Baby lock is meeting the other ambassadors that work in with the machines. Mallory Donohue make a lot of things, specializing in clothing. I first ‘found her’ by her wonderful videos on how to use the Sashiko machine. She and her mom Zede run SewHere.com. Which is about teaching sewing for everyone via their website, videos, FaceBook lives, and podcasts. We chat about making clothing that fits as we quilters have amazing fabric we can use for things other than quilts! ---- Who do I turn to for questions on the quilting design program Electric Quilt? My good friend Nancy Mahoney! She has been using the program for years, is and EQ Ambassador, and knows the ins and outs. I wanted to tell you about some of the features you might not know about with Nancy as our guide! --------- I was so excited to see Jenny Wilding Cardon’s book Visible Mending. The idea of artfully mending items is on the upswing and her book has so many fantastic ways to do this. Things we quilters will love! I first saw visible mending in about 1973 when one of the girls a few grades older than me was doing this to her favorite jeans. The one I remember most was a pocket, with zipper, on the inside thigh of her jeans. She kept her lunch money there.. it was the 70s.. the jeans had elephant bells and she was very on trend! Jenny also works for Martingale as an editor in charge of their online blog, facebook and Instagram account. She is incredible, you are going to love her! ================ Visit American Patchwork & Quilting at www.allpeoplequilt.com.

In episode 144, Kestrel welcomes Zinzi Edmundson, the editor + cofounder of Knit Wit Magazine, to the show. A website for fiber freaks, Knit Wit explores everything about fiber arts and their makers. “Just like cutting out fast fashion and knowing about your materials and the process behind where your clothing is coming from, that’s equally as important with buying your materials for crafting.” -Zinzi Edmundson, Founder of Knit Wit Throughout this chat, Zinzi shares more on Knit Wit's recent shift from print to digital, and how listening to her readers was an integral piece of this decision. Additionally, she shares more with us on which crafts are "all the rage" right now, and how even though there are trends in crafting, makers tend to not ditch the past trends when they find a new one - instead, they just add them to their fiber art arsenal.  The below thoughts, ideas + organizations were brought up in this chat: Sashiko, Mend and Make New, article Kestrel wrote for Knit Wit about Jessica Marquez’s new book Make + Mend DMC embroidery thread Wool and the Gang x DMC Partnership What’s currently “trending” in the maker scene according to Zinzi? embroidery, needle tufting, rag rugs “That is very old vs new media - old media tells you what’s what and you’re like ok I guess you’re the authority - I will do that or I should like that - and then new media can kind of adapt and respond.”

I’m very excited to share the second episode of the Woolful podcast. Today we get to meet two amazing fiber enthusiasts, Jerome Sevilla of Grid Junky and Sarah Higgins of Sarah In Pursuit. Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by Tolt Yarn and Wool, my favorite yarn shop. In 2013, Anna Dianich opened Tolt Yarn and Wool. a local yarn shop in Carnation Washington.
