HEY! If you want to support communities of colour and are a sewer, cosplayer, quilter, knitter or DIY lover, then I have fantastic news! I just found an amazing master list of businesses owned by POC, women, and allies that sell sewing and crafting supplies. It’s got a full breakdown of what they carry, who runs it, where they’re based, etc.
This list is the baby of Seattle-based designer Jacinta Green. The sellers are all vetted by Jacinda or by followers she trusts. It’s already at 236 and is still growing! You can find her on instagram @pinkmimosabyjacinta.
Warmest mittens ever! Felted 100% wool, wrists are 75% wool and 25% polyamide so they don’t felt. Thumbs came out a bit too long but I can live with that.
I might be freezing elsewhere but my hands are warm. So good.
Wool slippers for my dad for Father’s Day gift. He was so surprised, he asked me where I got them. The look on his face when I told I made them myself was priceless.
Mom asked me to make slippers for her to wear while working. She massages people and animals and wanted something warm and comfy, and specifically requested grey.
Quarantine brought me a new love for needle felting, and I really want to keep it up & improve! I hope one day to include little bbs like this in a shop. Thoughts on/interest in felted friends or keychains like this lil lady?
