@drandrewv2 wow! 😍 That is gorgeous! Love it! I’m not much of a seamstress… I’ve been making #boomerangbags for the last few years, and that’s it.

#introduction

I've been #knitting forever and really like #aran knitting. I have done some #fairisle (hello, #Queens #Tricolour #Sesquicentennial #Sweater designed by the late #MabelCorlett - first #Canadian woman Geology PhD holder - see banner). I'm a #Sci95 in #GeoEng and #MSc97 in #CivilEng

#DNAPL afficionado

I like to make #boomerangbags (reusable bags sewn from fabric destined for landfill)

The #GirlScoutJunior troop raised just under $400 and purchased fabric cutting mat, cutter, red #BoomerangBags labels and have started this group and allow it to sustain itself for years in the future in our community

...as well as to talk about why #BoomerangBags helped to reduce #PlasticWaste in our #oceans and to welcome other townspeople to come and sew bags with them

Did you know that #boomerangbags (boomerangbags.org) is a WORLDWIDE, grassroots organization that takes fabrics destined for landfill and makes reusable bags out of them? Sewn by volunteers in your community?

@megsecatore @sophie I'm not a great sewist either but have you ever checked out #boomerangbags ? Come out to the library in #Sudbury in the Metrowest - we do a Boomerang Bags night ~ once a month - sewing reusable shopping bags from fabric that was destined to landfill! 🙂

New #introduction post to pin to my profile.

I love #knitting and have been doing it forever. I also like #reading, #skiing, #sewing, #girlscoutleading, and the #oxfordcomma, as well as different volunteer efforts like #boomerangbags. I nerd out listening to #economics podcasts like #marketplace, #planetmoney, #theindicator, #freakonomics, and also #hiddenbrain because brain science and #neuropsychology is cool.

In the #Boston area and love it, if I can't be in #Canada.
