Mending Matters delves into the world of sewing on two captivating levels. Firstly, it presents an array of over 20 hands-on projects that showcase the latest trends in visible mending, blending edgy, modern, and bold elements with traditional stitching techniques. Through the utilization of just four simple mending techniques—exterior patches, interior patches, slow stitches, darning, and weaving—this book achieves its remarkable feat.
Moreover, Mending Matters goes beyond the realm of stitching, exploring how mending fosters a deeper connection to fashion and overall well-being. Accompanying each how-to chapter are thought-provoking essays by Katrina Rodabaugh, which delve into mending as a metaphor for embracing our own naturally flawed selves. Rodabaugh examines the ways in which mending imparts valuable skills, self-reliance, and confidence, all of which are gained through the act of creating things with our own hands.
By exploring these two dimensions, Mending Matters offers a holistic and enriching perspective on the art of sewing, encouraging readers to appreciate the beauty of imperfections and to embrace the transformative power of mending. Whether you're a seasoned sewist or a beginner looking to embark on a journey of self-discovery, this book is a must-read for anyone who seeks to reconnect with the joy and satisfaction of repairing and reviving the things we cherish.
