Here are links to Gentle Stitches’ blog posts about repairing and mending instead of just discarding. She shows how to start putting together a toolkit so that when you want or need to mend, you have everything you need at hand and all together.

Reading these posts reminded me of an old but valuable saying:
Use it up,
Wear it out;
Make it do

Love it! ❤
