The #Blackforest #elk goes #PeakyBlinders.

Yeah, I finished the crazy project which is completely sewn by hand - including a warm polar fabric lining. (The only things I've sewn so far have been tablecloths and cushions and I waited 2 yrs for a part of my machine.) I used this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rguHHZFR-k0 for the pattern.
All fabrics are recycled from old cloths (I still have enough for a waistcoat). @sewing

#VisibleMending is not only for #clothes. This #colourful #handbag with abstract roses helped me against dark winter days. Suddenly I discovered this terrible hole and decided to mend it. It was not easy to find the fabric (more in the Alt texts) but I saved my handbag! 😊 And now it's a unique piece of individual design!

🧵 1/ My new #VisibleMending project: This linen-yarn T-shirt is a memento of my dog, who once got stuck at the bottom with his claw and tore a hole. It's darned in the shape of a yellow beetle. To make the whole thing more harmonious, I'm going to do a few small appliqués elsewhere today.

In our Sunday animations in the #culturalHeritage centre, I finished my #visibleMending project: a #secondHand jacket with a completely scuffed collar. For a better look I fixed 2 more patches. All people were very curious. Then the reactions:
⭕️ I would never dare to wear s'th with patches.
⭕️ I never had the time (but they have time for TV, social media etc.)

1/2 Tomorrow our embroidery club is meeting again and I'm utterly empty of ideas for new art. Time for a piece that I don't have to think much about and that has been lying around unfinished since last year.😏 Haut Couture with a cashmere blazer for 5 E from the second-hand shop and #VisibleMending in contrast.
