If you see this charming rose, say hello 🌹 #embroidery #handembroidery #rose #redrose #art #handmade

This is so cool!

We curate our shop collection thoughtfully, with a focus on finding clothing made from natural materials and minimal to no plastic synthetics. #readthelabel #checkthelabel before you buy.

We have over 20 local artists and makers in our shop. NV Glass is ow ed by artists Nita and Valerie. They are such lovely women and amazingly talented glass artists. 💚✨

I saved a pair of clapped out work trousers that my hubby was binning from going to landfill and customised them into these punk inspired trews. Used visible overlock stitching to create a slim fit and added a revolt patch. #upcycled #trousers #punk #pants #revolt #revamp #rebel #makeyourown

Thrift stores and estate sales are THE BEST PLACES to find great fabric for your projects. Our members use curtains, tablecloths, vintage sheets and more. Check this out: youtu.be/GBwl-9RKhbE?...

I'm a big fan of layering with plus size upcycled pinafore dresses. This one took about an hour or so - not kidding. Try it out for yourself: youtu.be/co2c3PZSdiM?...

Make a fabulous and funky upcycled top, tunic or dress. Let your imagination run completely wild with this one! youtu.be/qg2BzmX6fLw?...

This is a pretty easy make using an upcycled 1990s slip dress and transforming it into a pretty overdress pinafore whatever. Try it. It's easy. youtu.be/YwRcqUbu6DA?...

Sending a little love out to the world today. Lake Superior Agate and Sterling Silver pendant. ❤️

if we sold 5 yard, 60” wide pre-cut sections of this fabric (ethically made, sustainably sourced, non-stretch 100% viscose printed in my hands pattern, on the left) for $75 USD, would any of you buy it? our printer made an error and we’re trying to figure out how to best minimize waste #store

Were this to be described in 21st century terms, it would be a ‘co-ord’ in this case of the #1730s variety, a stiffened bodice and matching skirt in bold bright floral brocade #nasjonalmuseet #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Oops! All red hands! Our printer produced the wrong size pattern. To reduce waste we're selling this fabric directly TO YOU! This is the fabric we used for the DM button-downs: lightweight and breathable, but not too thin, non-stretch EcoVero viscose. Ethically made, sustainably sourced. #store

My big (huge!) project for the year is making a hand-embroidered suit. I recently finished the first of ten major pieces: the back of the waistcoat

The amazing hand-knit dinosaur sweater I found at a vintage shop last week came pre-loaded with someone else’s BO I fear, so it’s had a bath and is now being re-blocked

I'm currently trying hard to avoid the doomscroll & constant depressing news cycle. Slightly ashamed to admit that as well as craft, Traitors is also helping! #mindfulcrafting #stopdoomscrolling theconversation.com/how-a-mindfu...

Barry Goldberg was great musician & songwriter. He, too, wrote with Gerry Goffin, notably “ I’ve Got To Use My Imagination”. Rest in Peace
