Visible Mending Directory (AKA The Visible Mending Digital Humanities Project)

I am so excited to share that the Visible Mending Directory (AKA The Visible Mending Digital Humanities Project), conceived and founded by awesome mender Kate Sekules, is now up and running!!!

It is an honor to be a part of this huge undertaking that has been years in the making.  Now, you can go to the website and search the world for a mender in your area.  So, so cool.  I love the feeling of being connected to other menders and artists who do this work. 

Here is my page on the website - Marsha Makes Mending Service.

And here is the Home page, so you can see the world map and click around to find more information about it - The Visible Mending Digital Humanities Project Homepage.

And here are a few of my favorite mends that I've done over the past several years (the first one is actually a cute patch). Enjoy!


By the way, Kate Sekules is committed to visible mending and has written a great book titled, Mend!  A Refashioning Manifesto.  I highly recommend that you check it out!
