Threads for mending

Description

If you embrace it, simple mending is a pleasant, mindful, no-waste, winter pursuit that does not require particular skills.  Some of the useful things we can mend with strong linen thread and needle are:

~reusable shopping bags ~umbrellas ~jeans ~work clothes ~oven mitts ~soft toys ~workbaskets ~aprons ~childrens books ~quilts&blankets ~zips

..and there is nothing like teaching a youngster the simple skill of repairing a loved item to help them appreciate the  imperfect but lasting nature of things.
