Always wanted to repair your own clothing but don’t know where to start?
Lucky for us, One Tree seamstress Gina has made us some videos outlining basic repair techniques: wool darning; a trouser patch; and repairing an inside seam.
And it wouldn’t be #VirtualFixIt without Gina! Without her help, the first Fix It events would never have taken off. She repaired over 125kg of clothing, resulting in a saving of 2,900kg of emissions by keeping items in circulation and out of landfill. She still repairs clothing for One Sleeve at a Time, and is an indispensable part of the team.
Let us know if you give the videos a go, and how you get on.
