By way of introduction I am a 37 year old textile artist specialising in using fabric mending as a way to explore healing. Based in Shropshire UK and working on a new exhibition about scarring coming in 2023 called 'Visibly Mending'

Read about this 21 year old who makes hoodies from quilts and can’t stop thinking about making a quilt hoodie from all the conference polo shirts I have as speaker gifts.
I don’t even own a decent sewing machine though.
