Diy produce bags

Cut old tote in four pieces to make small produce bags. Old tote bag had advertisement on it.

1) folding and attaching a piece

2) embroidery over to secure hem

Finished except attaching a loop from handle piece. Used knotted blanket stitch.

One is almost finished, but I might make few more to give away.

If you need quickly one, existing materials can be used. Linen, pillow case, old tote etc

Does anyone have any advice for mending this?

I have a lot of experience in hand sewing, but I'm not sure where to start in order to mend the rips in a way that will last and ultimately NOT rip easily again.

The first two pics are the pocket that need repairing. The last one is the other unharmed pocket

Thanks in advance for any advice! This is my favorite sweater, I must save her 🥺

So my coworker asked I'd I could mend a tear in the crotch of his work pants and I was like.. well no. Cause while I do like to do fiber arts and have dabbled a very small bit in sewing (both hand and machine) it's not something I really have the supplies or experience to do.

But ofc this mf brings his pants in anyway. It's been like 3 weeks but I finally got around to buying some fusible web tape and hand stitched his seam

These pictures aren't the best cause it's midnight but like. Tell me I didn't kill this for my first time

And like yes I know you're supposed to match the color thread to the fabric but my coworker and I constantly screw with each other and I know he won't care, so I went with what I liked and ya boy likes neons.

PLUS I DID SO GOOD ITS NOT LIKE ANYONES GONNA SEE IT ANYWAY RIGHT

I did not remotely want to repair these pants but I did and I'm literally so proud of myself rn.

Good mornting. I wanna sew a pair of pants but I don't have the right fabric.

These selfies r random but it is 6am. I'm so pretty no makeup. Also I thinned my hair and it feels so much better.

Theatre Costuming

You always learn something new when working as the costume manager/maker of an amateur theatre group.

mostly it's new skills. Lik elast semester I made a quick-change dress for the first time.

this semester I've just finished making a chest plate from fabric to help sell the illusion of our actress playing jonathan harker as a man. drag king videos for the win!

Also because it is basically the middle of the night, the whole thing came together with a lot of hand sewing :) (while listening to the osp reading stream of dracula, funnily enough. I stay consistently in the vibe apparently)

thank gods the dress shirt and the vest and the pants I can resize by maschine tomorrow. Now that the base exists, I can build on top of it!

Another thing I learned for the first time this production is dip dyeing fabric to make our Dracula a lovely red lace shirt, and I learned a lot about cape physics.

We hae 3-5 Draculas in our entire play, so lots of capes needed.

Costuming is so fun, especially tailoring thrifted pieces to fit the proper visions of what the characters look like in our heads

(sorry for no actual pictures of what I've accomplished, but I am tired now - might post some tomorrow)
