I know some of you are concerned about waste and sustainability while others use Stephanie Pearl McPhee’s “darn, darn, darn” method. Thanks @ellis.greer for posting in your Stories. Go to the original post to swipe and see the whole tutorial. I’m going to try this next time I see a hole.

Tutorial on mending socks with holes^ for the winter ☃️❄️ don’t want no toes getting cold in the snow
⠀⠀
"One winter wearing a crummy pair of boots and now ALL my very $$$ @smartwool socks have holes in the same place BUT fret not! Now is the time to pull out all those woolies tucked away since winter - socks, sweaters, mittens and hats - and spruce them up for Fall
Darning a hole is surprisingly simple! Essentially you are using yarn to weave new fabric wear the old has worn away. Swipe left for our simple step-by-step tutorial on how to earn a BIG hole in your sock! If you’d like to mend a hole in something without a heel - like a sweater or hat - the process is the same, you just don’t need the apple/orange/darning egg because that is really only used for holding the shape of a heel. If you are mending a fingertip in a mitten or globe, use a smaller finger-like tool - perhaps the wide end of a carrot? - to hold the glove-finger’s shape while you mend the hole
Often mending feels daunting because there never seems to be time to fit it in - there always seems to be something more important to do. But we find it helpful to tuck a mending project in a bag when we are in the go so we can pull it out in a lull - riding the bus or train, waiting in line, waiting for our food at a restaurant. There are so many moments, out and about and at home when a few rows of stitches can be added to a mending project and soon enough all the holes will be filled and things are ready for action again

Warning! Cuteness overload ahead I spent the week in San Diego visiting friends and teaching a couple of the cutest “emerging makers” how to sew! .
Their mother, Maryanne and I have been friends since jr. high school, and while she has never had much interest in sewing, her two older daughters (ages 6 & 4) are CRAZY about it!! Oh my gosh, it just made my heart sing to share the creative bug with these two! Swipe to see some of our adventure, and if you want a little more of the story, I did a just for fun blog post today with lots of photos... maybe it’ll inspire an emerging maker in your life! . .

We absolutely ❤️❤️ our family learn to sew classes!! Think Mommy and Me, Daddy and Me, Grandparent and Me. Those smiles on the kiddos as they finish their first project - simply heartwarming. This class is PERFECT for the kiddos too young to take traditional sewing classes, but eager to learn how to sew. All are welcome at the Collective!
Our next session is coming up on May 12th, 2:00 - 4:00 pm. We will be making adult and child aprons - you won't want to miss this!!
--------------------------
Grab your kiddo for this fun and simple 2 hour class where we will teach you the sewing machine basics so that you can make a fun project with your child.
Pre-registration is required. Space is limited to the first 10 people.

We are in full prep mood for @craftalive Mount Gambier in South Australia later this month. You'll be able to join us for our super fun workshops! Pictured here is one of my favourite students, Bekah. A brand new sewer I met last year in Canberra and a complete natural! Bekah joined me for 3 classes earlier this month with her lovely Mum (who I must say was a scrapbooker we turned to the dark side ). I'm pretty certain they have every Sew Quirky Pattern and also took home a #bernetteb38 sewing machine to continue the fun at home! So if you've ever wanted to try applique, come and join us! We cater for all skill levels and you'll be surprised on what you'll achieve! Book now on the @craftalive website as spaces are limited.
P.s check out my super cute necklace Bekah made for me with one of the other feature artist @fangirlstitches I'll cherish it forever. #ilovewhatido #australianpatterndesigner #sewingteacher #sewquirkyworkshops
Kaye is such a lovely person inside and out! I find myself so lucky to teach such kind hearted people. Kaye's Quirky Threads Vinyl Organiser is sewn beautifully and will be perfect for storing some hand sewing or quilting supplies. Join our workshops at @craftalive Mount Gambier this Friday through to Sunday and create your very own! These also make great gifts for your sewing buddies! Book via the @craftalive website to secure your place. #craftalivemountgambier
