MENDING MATTERS : Stitch, Patch, and Repair Favorite Denim & More / KATRINA RODABAUGH ; PHOTOGRAPHY BY KAREN PEARSON New York : ABRAMS , 2018. ©2018 224 pages : colour photographs ; 24 cm rdacontent text rdamedia unmediated rdacarrier volume Mending Matters explores sewing on two levels: First, it includes more than 20 hands-on projects that showcase current trends in visible mending that are edgy, modern, and bold-but draw on traditional stitching. It does all this through just four very simple mending techniques: exterior patches, interior patches, slow stitches, darning, and weaving. In addition, the book addresses the way mending leads to a more mindful relationship to fashion and to overall well-being. In essays that accompany each how-to chapter, Katrina Rodabaugh explores mending as a metaphor for appreciating our own naturally flawed selves, and she examines the ways in which mending teaches us new skills, self-reliance, and confidence, all gained from making things with our own hands.
