Isn't just wonderful that clothes come with their sources? If you slice the parts off with a seamripper, lay them all down, trace them, cut them out of new fabric, and stitch them back together, you can effectively clone and fork garments. I realize that this is probably real obvious to most people, but it only dawned on me recently. So, that’s what I’ve been up to, most nights my laptop is stowed away to make room for the sewing machine on the nav table.It all began when the store that made the patrol cap I wear stopped carrying them. The seams of the old worn-out cap were cut, new 14oz canvas was bought and the cap was cloned, twice! And then, I made a new messenger backpack, fixed ripped panels on my winter jacket, sown tartan wool arm warmers and some other things. At one point, I realized that I was wearing six items of clothing I had made or mended.https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/now.html

@neauoire being able to repair clothes is such a wonderful skill. I am into vintage suit jackets and I've learned so much just mending the ones I have

@neauoire Shush. Keep it quiet or they'll add DRM to clothing, too.

@neauoire J'avais une Janome mais notre fille est partie avec... Des recommandations pour une machine de remplacement? La vôtre est-elle à pédale? 🙂 Rien ne crie plus "solar punk" qu'une authentique Singer à pédale!

@neauoire you're inspiring me to rebuild my cote&ciel backpack, already bought is a second time but the outer layer is some kind of polyester and starts to flake because of the sun and lying around in skateparks

@TwinFaces That's such a good habit, I need to do the same, I started realizing that I've given away or trashed garments with cuts that fitted me better than what I wear now, I could have kept as patterns instead of throwing them away! :bloat:
