since re-booting my #sewing life, i鈥檝e learned how insidious the #petromafia is in #fashion with #polyesters.
when we made our clothes, we learned fabrics #tech. #globalization for #consumerism killed that knowledge.

馃憖 If you could see microplastics, you would see them EVERYWHERE.
Microplastics have been found in the 馃尙锔廰ir we breathe, the 馃崗food we eat, and even in 馃珌organs and 馃└blood.
The only way to reduce microplastics is to cut plastic production.
