@goosehd pushed me over the edge to show some face. Not much a fan of showing my face everywhere as for me it’s mostly about the cloths and real interactions with people.
I also deleted my instagram beginning of this year and this forum is now all I have/need.
I hope I can make it to the release party at IH Germany this year but even flying is due to my remote location not so easy.
Maybe there are also other possibilities coming up in the future to connect more with you guys

Happy Wabash Wednesday everyone 🤍🤍

@GraemeE fully agree!
It‘s kind of meditative, similar to cleaning boots. You just focus on the task and all the rest disappears…

@GraemeE oh yes, I have seen that in one of the YouTube videos. I fixed it with needles when I did the hole first but then removed the needles as they were hindering me when I did the pattern part.

It was to much effort for me to fix the patch first but you're right this way would be much better. I also should not have stitched to far within the pattern but I was too lazy to make each star pattern and then cut and knot and move on to the next.

I will for sure try some more patterns and also maybe mix more colors in the future. There are so many cool tings you can do and make clothing even more unique. Also the thought to give those clothes a much longer live is really nice in my opinion.

Maybe it´s also just me trying to get my son into denim who knows

@goosehd I think with some more patience and experience someone get´s the back side also look much cleaner. I also think as long as the inside is not hindering when getting into the pants and does not feel weird it's okay as long as the outside looks fine.

I'm really happy that that my son likes it, the only problem is he grows faster than I get his pants fixed

@goosehd haha… you got me there, the inside looks like a mess Still need to practice and it’s challenging for me as I‘m very impatient. It took me roughly 5h to get it done and it was my second sashiko repair that I ever did.

I got this cards and a book from Amazon and watched a couple of videos.

I also figured out that kids pants are though because there is not much space for your hand and needle when going inside

Still learning the ropes….

Getting ready for the next submission
