I see a lot of textiles dumped around the city, so I wrote a zine for @mendingbloc.bsky.social on how to rescue clothes and sheets/blankets from the trash and bring them back into community use. mendingbloc.carrd.co#stuff

Tomorrow!! We got snacks! Come for as much or little time as you want to, we’d love to see you!
Come mend with us next Saturday! We have an enormous pile of cute kids clothes that need to be fixed up and also need homes, so you can come just to mend, just to take some clothes home, or to do both—whatever will get these nice items back in functioning condition and worn by kids in our community!
