We're taking part in Fashion Revolution's 'Mend in Public Day' for the second year in a row! Join us at Monarch Park or at our studio to mend your clothes, learn repair techniques, and talk tangible, immediate climate action #wearefashionrevolution #lovedclotheslast #whomademyclothes #visiblemending

So proud of this lil guy - Phantasmal Flames Oddish shadowbox card as a gift for a friend. I loved the coloured outlines and wanted to keep them when I painted the edges.

Aside from needing to clean my phone lens, I'm pretty happy with banana-neck 💛

It's the #YearoftheHorse! Our Cosplay Club and older After School Club came together to build this cardboard statue for Year of the Horse and its so damn cool! #chinesenewyear #lunarnewyear

Well I ran out of tshirt tubes so this is as big as it gets--about 24x20, so a good bath mat size. Twining uses substantially more material than regular weaving but it's nice and plush feeling

My favourite of our traditions is being a safe space for Trick-or-Treaters and decorating 💕 This year's theme.... UNDERWATER

Craft Meet and Material Swap this Friday! #circulareconomy #visiblemending #mendingmatters #torontoevents

I'm so proud of our kids 🥹 For our PA Day Camp on Friday, we made up some cardboard looms and taught them bead weaving with pony beads. This took patience, this took dexterity, and this took vision - all things we've found Gen alpha struggle with and 👏they👏showed👏up! #makerspace #handsonlearning

So I learned a new pop-tab weave recently and I absolutely love it! I've been testing it with leather rope, ribbon, upcycled rickrack, and bias tape and seeing what holds up best. #upcyledart #ecofriendly #solarpunkfashion #diyFashion #diycrafts

I’m genuinely asking, if you read a single review of mine this year, make it this one

October programming dropped! We' kinda Halloween obsessed 🦇 We've got lots of sewing, crafting, and some special events planned for you this spooky season 😁

Friday's pop-tab jewelry workshop went great. We had a few last minute sign ups, so we ran it. Admittedly, I've been exhausted and feeling really down lately, but teaching and crafting with these folks was exactly what I needed. #mendingmatters #diycrafts #diyprojects

so Ive been trying to make at least one side of this seemless, as in do a darn from the back to there's no bump on the edges of the mend and the hole. I think I did okay first time around. On the back I couldn't think of how to do it seemless again but not look.. messy. So I relented and did a patch

He's helping. ... Finally started the mend on my sisters campfire blanket. I'm starting with the small holes to get used to mending something like this. Its three layers of Yarn in the weave which Ive never worked on before. Im challenging myself to make both sides seamless if I can #visiblemending

Bluesky is asking for our feedback. Make sure you tell them how you feel. And make them remember that this site wouldn't exist without sex workers, queers and furries.

I think this is my favourite thing ever made at one of our summer camps! Last week was Summerween Camp so our younger kids made low poly animal masks, and our older kids made huge cardboard masks from scratch 🎃 #summercamp #diyproject #diycrafts #makerspace #diycrafts

Actually had a moment between teaching and business stuff to complete a personal project this summer! I found a free pattern online for this (link in thread), so I made a little gift for Jenna #kpopdemonhunters #diycrafts #embroidery #pinsandpatches

"...people will just volunteer without explicit economic incentives to create..." This is LITERALLY what the internet used to be. The whole fucking thing. Every piece of it. Stem to stern. That sentence right there. We were just on here, doing stuff, just to share with each other.

Found a friend on my walk with Bowie today 🌻🦋 Did you know the eastern Monarch population is beginning to rebound? #environmentalism #hopeinconservation #conservation #goodnews

I've been off work since Monday and today is the first time it actually felt like it. I spent part of the afternoon practicing sewing buttons on my flower combat pants. #mendingmatters #makerspace #handsonlearning #visiblemending #handsewing

I still find it hilarious they pull up Logan or Thor like no buddy you look FOOLISH the girlies want a Nightcrawler, a Loki, a Nightwing, a Gambit 😂 You know who wants you to be a big buff man who does muscles and violence instead of feelings? The folks selling you Big Buff Man products

If you know me at all you know I love a craft meet, and collage is one of my favourite activities to run. It's so simple and accessible, but the ceiling of what you can create is endless. Heres a few of the pieces made last night 💕 #craftmeet #makerspace #diycrafts #craftytoronto

Collage nights are the absolute best cuz people get weird and fun in the best ways 💕 #diy #artsandcrafts #makerspace #torontolife

Dragon Age Inquisition Greatsword is coming along well! Sprayed chrome, next up is clearcoat, then some gold leaf

See you Wednesday night 🪡🎨🔩💕

Had the cutest Kids Craft Meet this morning! One crafter was making a paper illustration from Kpop Démon Hunters, two were working on cosplays, we had some hand sewing happening, and even some sculpting and melty beads 💕 Next Wednesday is out Adult Craft Meet (pwyc) #makerspace #craftingcommunity

First big mending project, excited and apprehensive! It's a poly wool blanket of my sisters that she got too close to a campfire with. She asked me to mend it for her for her birthday. #visiblemending #mendingmatters #prayforme

Two week Cosplay armour intensive workshop starting July 5th and 12th! @elementalsight.bsky.social will be walking you through making bracers (forearm armour) from foam, to Worbla, all the way to paint. #makerspace #handsonlearning #cosplay #cosplayworkshop #todotoronto

the neat thing is we had labubus in the 90s too

The partly finished butt area (diagonal lines to come) of my jeans, and the (steadily growing) blank canvas yet to be worked on at the front. #sashiko #visiblemending #craftsky #australian 🧶

🌈Happy Pride Everyone✨ One of our kids designed this message for our pride sign this year and we couldn't be more proud to show it off 💕

kinda half done labyrinth thingy because I like the composition #art #labyrinth

None of us are free until *all* of us are free ✨

Come make free Pride Prints at East Lynn Park tomorrow from 3-7pm 💜🩵💚 #printmaking #pridecrafts #supportlocal #mischiefmakers

My favourite project from our kids this year was teaching them to make one page Zines. They'd use mix media to create them (to get them to think outside /just/ pencil) and we made 5-10 copies of each for them to share with friends.

Bring back cosplay dot com.

Date/Location survey for a Toronto Cosplay Picnic sometime this summer~! forms.gle/6PF1DcnNm1Vg...

A great blogpost about working with silk and linen with some details about the differences to using wool, that I hadn’t ever seen mentioned before. www.abeeinthebonnet.com/blog/12-thin... #knitsky #craftsky 🧶

thank you!!! i always try to strike a balance between the material world and the digital with my work. there's something so magical about "slow media" still that i cherish a lot, owning hundreds of zines myself!!

I'm absolutely loving the rise in zine culture in the last few years. When were so inundated with memes and social media - it's so good to see people moving to something more personal 💜 Love you Zee, so proud of you!

this is so cool!!!! the librarian who bought my zines at TCAF reached out and thanked me for making them, as well as let me know they're now in the system at the toronto public library's zine collection!!!! 😭💜 holy SHIT!!

I am absolutely over the moon with how cute my Macramé pansexual rainbow from yesterday's workshop turned out 🩷💛🩵 #macrame #diycrafts #pridecrafts

This video is a little over two years old, and gives some history of relatively recent craftivism projects. Worth a watch to help cheer and encourage you during these times. #knitsky #craftsky 🧶 youtu.be/PQRSuVCJ0Qk

Block the fuck out of this account. They hopped into the replies under a mutual's art, and had the audacity to suggest they use genAI instead.

Kathleen Yamazaki's Rainbow Macramé workshop was exactly what we needed yesterday 💕 🌈 She always runs such a warm, welcoming, and engaging class. #diycommunity #pridecrafts #macarame #diycrafts

Covering a closet at work in stickers since our small sticker wall will be coming down before the summers over. Glad I found some treasures at @yeticon.bsky.social
