#41 Channel your inner seamstress/seamster
Have you ever looked at something while shopping and thought, “hah, imagine paying full price for THAT”? Well, so have I, and in response to that thought, I went to the fabric market in search of material that would make a nice skirt. Instead, I found this monstrous blue fur and couldn’t pass up an opportunity to make my own knock off unif tote.
I am really the worst at sewing, so there will be no tutorial from me. The fact that this bag came into existence at all despite my heavy involvement in its creation, is beyond me.
SO! Despite this experience not being remotely calm nor tranquil, I suggest you try sewing out for a change, for the reason that it’s a pretty impressive skill but also for some other reasons! 1. Sewing gives you a lot of control (all the control) over what your clothing will look like 2. A positive environmental impact as the carbon emissions involved in the creation of your work will not nearly be as high as that of fast fashion products! 3. People consider sewing to be therapeutic, but I personally am yet to experience that.
Look at him. magnificent.
Go on! go into the world and sew yourself something!!! Do it!!
:-) luv you all
