Mending save resources Mar 25, 2021

Show notes

Kate Ward shares her research to show how mending helps save our resources. Kate has also shared this research on her blog so you can do additional reading about how textile manufacturing techniques pollute our planet.

By extending the life of your clothes by months or by years, lessens your carbon foot print. What you pay for clothes impacts the working conditions of factory workers. The less you pay for ready to wear goods, the less factory workers are paid and their working conditions remain poor.

#mendmarch run by Kate Sekules is a great way to take up visible mending one step at a time.

Show notes

Today is the first part of our breast cancer podcasts for Sewover50. Denise Archer came back to talk about sewing for a chest with no breasts but we focussed on the very graphic details of cancer treatments and post cancer reality. Please skip this podcast as the depth of Denise's cancer details may upset you.

This podcast is not medical advice. If you want information about breast cancer treatments or post surgery choices contact your oncologist or go to the breast cancer organisations in your country.

Part 2 of this breast cancer series features Tina of Bricolagedk talking about her breast cancer experience, her decision to keep 1 breast and the pattern choices she now uses to live her best life.
