Mending Life
A Handbook for Repairing Clothes and Hearts (and Patching to Practice Sustainable Fashion and Fix the Clothes You Love)
Learn the art of visible mending—a joyful, meditative, and restorative practice—to repair the clothes and belongings you love!
“Not only a compendium of practical knowledge, but a moving meditation on what mending can mean more broadly. If everyone practiced the care, patience, and forgiveness suggested by the authors’ outlook, the world would be a better place.”
—Jenny Odell, author of How to Do Nothing and Saving Time
A beautiful modern sewing and mending guide with vibrant, full-color illustrations throughout, Mending Life encourages us to break free from the fast fashion industry by repairing our clothes rather than discarding them. Along with DIY and how-to illustrations and tutorials, you’ll find heartfelt stories by authors Nina and Sonya Montenegro (creators of the popular @TheFarWoods)…
