Description
In this thoughtful, inspirational book, Molly - now a master repairer - explores the humble origins of hand work and repair and how the simplest old sewing techniques offer not just a practical solution but a philosophy for life. Using her own charming illustrations, she teaches us the basics of the craft and shows how the art of mending can turn something old and worn into something new and meaningful. Her teachings offer an antidote to our increasingly disposable lifestyle, encouraging us to reconnect not just with the everyday objects in our environment but also with ourselves.
