Posted @withregram • @theorispresent How many Black Friday deals will end up like this?

Clip 1: Container loads of secondhand clothing being burnt because it arrived too moldy and dirty to be resold. Importers here in Ghana must destroy (burn) unsellable goods in order to make an insurance claim.

Clip 2: An informal dumpsite comprised of ~60% secondhand clothing waste. The dumpsite is often burnt to stop clothing and e-waste from toppling over into the river.

Clip 3: Tangled masses of secondhand clothing waste washing up on Accra’s beaches.

#marchmeetthemaker Day 22: Hands On⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What's more hands on than a video of me preparing to do #satinstitch for my Spring Wreath? For those who are struggling with this stitch, putting down guidelines to determine the direction of your thread (and fill in space!) is extremely helpful. Try your best to make the guidelines parallel.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Video description: A close up of my hand as I guide white embroidery floss through blush pink fabric to create a flat flower using satin stitch. The flower is surrounded by 3D white roses and gold leaves.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #embroiderytutorial #embroideryhowto #satinstitchtutorial #embroidery #embroideredhoopart #modernflorals #floralembroidery #floralwreath #floralbouquet #flowers #dmcthread #embroideryart #embroiderywallart #sustainableembroidery #handembroidered #handembroidery #fiberart #fiberartist #femalefiberartist #textileartist #womanowned #nycftcmember
