I outlined the hearts with reflective thread for a one of a kind distinctive look, which can be spotted at night from a distance.

My tights: Before; Inside after mending; Outside after mending (you should see my knee – this one hurt).

This rain jacket didn’t have any pockets, I added these.

Things kept falling out of the pocket, so I designed and added a cinch topper which solved the problem.

Sewing Heidi Garner gaiters and zipper gaiters. I cut them out, and sew them by hand. I source the most sustainable materials I can find too, see the Heidi Garner gaiter page for more information. You can purchase them on Heidi’s site.

Little fixes make big differences. I hand stitched the fabric around the neck and got rid of the chafing issue.
