| Author Notes: | Mary V Morton @edinburghstreetstitchers @mvm13 is a climate concerned grandma who has been a sewing volunteer with SHRUB Coop, a zero-waste charity in Edinburgh. Mary set up Edinburgh Street Stitchers, a group who take their camping chairs and 'Stitch it Don't Ditch It' banners out to streets and parks around the city to share their sewing skills and enable people to repair what they wear. Jeanna Wigger @thepeoplesmending is a life-long educator, creative, and textile enthusiast. She has taught embroidery and garment repair classes, co-organized hand sewing creative groups building community through craft, and volunteered to sort donated clothing with a non-profit organization to learn more about the impact of clothing waste on the world. |
