slow stitch club
Hi, I'm Skye. I’m based in Frome, Somerset and am the face behind slow stitch
club. After studying fashion design at university, I graduated with a very
different view of the industry, and wanted to push against it. From that point
on I continued to learn and educate myself; about the vast quantities of
clothing that is sent to landfill, the devastating environmental impacts of
textiles production as well as the horrifying truths about garment workers and
their lack of rights. The importance of caring for and extending the lives of
the clothes that already exist in the world became hugely important to me, and I
set out to help teach others about learning to fix their clothing through the
practice of visible mending.
