PHIR

The whole of May has been about tuning out and tuning in. It's always a challenge for me to just stop thinking about work and not be overwhelmed by it.

These pants were part of the pilot collection when we started out 3 years ago. It got shelved because it needed too much time, or I forgot where I kept it very safely, or I'd worked on it for a while and got bored. Happens. So I kept it for another day and that day came now. One whole month of working on this alone, on and off.

Whenever the thought of work came, I just picked these up and worked them so I could tell my brain it's busy with "work" already. Throughout music like this played along. I have a whole playlist.

I can't thank enough for his constant support and patience but also just his presence 🥹🤗
They turned out good in the end no?

Mending has gone from our culture and these workshops are a way for me to help bring it back! So if it resonates with the participants this deeply, it's a big deal to me 🥹
