Man, it's so hard to let go of a good hoodie. You amaze me.. sewing is one skill I just can't get a handle on. It's a dying art in a throw a way society.
I'm not sure that it's a dying art - we've seen an increase in the UK of shops, clubs and classes for needlework and other crafts and changes in the fashion industry (one of the biggest contributors to carbon gas poluution) has seen an increasing focus on sustainability and re-purposed materials.
Ain't that the truth. A good hoodie is so hard to part with!
I feel like people either love sewing or hate it. I have been surprised how many more people here in Australia seen to sew, compared to England. Or maybe it's just calisthenics and dance people. 🤔
I love and hate sewing - I love what you can do with it and I hate that often I have to work so hard to get what I had seen in my mind ;)
Lol! Especially when you get over ambitious!
