#132: A season of mending with Jeanna Wigger

Check Your Thread: Sewing More Sustainably

Dedicating an entire season to acts of mending is a bold move. As you may know, the most recent round of the Winter of Care and Repair challenge just wrapped up. In this episode the challenge’s creator, Jeanna Wigger, and I catch up to review the experience, both as individual participants and as members of this vibrant and inspiring global community of menders. So whether you’re in the southern hemisphere with Winter just round the corner, or you’re in the northern hemisphere and the next round is some way off, you’ll find out what benefits it could bring you, should you decide to participate. Support the podcast over on Patreon! You can follow Jeanna on Instagram @thepeoplesmending. Listen to my previous conversation with Jeanna about the challenge: Ep. #115: Winter of Care and Repair with Jeanna Wigger Other mending-related episodes you might enjoy include the three-part mini-series about Make Do and Mend: Ep. #28: Make Do and Mend Ep. #29: Lessons from the 1940s Ep. #30: Tips and Takeaways from Make Do and Mend Plus these solo episodes: Ep. #47: Introduction to Patching Ep. #68: Visible Vs Invisible Mending Jeanna tested out multiple methods of lightweight sock repair and reviewed the results.
