Mirth & Marrow
Founder of Sew Psyched: Social Clothing Exchange Events, Sewing services, Sewing lessons, upcycling workshops and craft group dates
This is a Social Community Initiative that is trying to reduce the textile waste going into landfill by creating local public clothing exchange events, offering sewing classes both 1 on 1 and in group, and motivating people to repair their items instead of throwing them out / donating to conventional second hand clothing shops.
Bringing awareness of the global environmental impacts of the fast & fashion industry, the shameful profit over people system is what I'm trying to share with my community. By working toward local focused ways of putting money back into this initiative we can thrive and exercise our passion for fashion without taking part in the... can we call: irresponsible shopping norms?!
I do not subscribe to destroying the earth for small pleasures and I hope you don't either!
Let's use what we already have and pull community closer together one swap and stitch at a time!
