In short vignettes tied to the rhythms of the seasons, Kate Fletcher, fashion and sustainability pioneer, explores interrelationships between clothing and the natural world in this first volume of Fletcher’s Almanac.

Writings and predictions for each month feature nature, not as the scenery against which fashion stories unfold, but the main event, and the connection of fashion and nature, the story. It has been said that fashion speaks capitalism. In these entries it speaks another tongue, the language of the earth.

A beautifully illustrated pocket-sized book to take with you on your forays into nature, the book is 100 x 150mm

On Mending

great ideas to make do and mend

Using some of the projects to rescue worn but loved items in my wardrobe

A deeply moving book

This is a beautiful and deeply moving collection of stories. The stories are discovered in the items that are mended - the echoes of lives captured in garments worn and loved, patched up by those who care.In her writing Celia articulates the value of clothing in a way that everyone can understand but too often we forget. I will return to this book again and again and be moved and inspired every time.

This personal memoir of several items mended over the years includes moving photos of the before and after mends. The author talks about techniques and what the clothes meant to the wearers/owners; often included are details of the origin of the item.

The whole story is an amazingly beautiful story from start to finish, I had the opportunity to see the red dress at MOB (Australia) and I am since in awe of how a project this big could include so many people, so many countries and so much dedication. Thank you Kristie Macleod and all involved.

The Red Dress: Conversations In Stitch

10/19/2026

My mind is blown - the details about the details. The number of people involved and the sharing of talent and inspiration. I honestly was not aware of this Red Dress. I hope somewhere, sometime, I get to see the dress in person - up close so my old eyes can really see. joanell -

This is more than a book about a dress, it's an oral history told in stitches. What stands out is how many voices get space: embroiderers from Egypt to Kosovo to Rwanda, telling their own stories alongside Kirstie Macleod's. Genuinely powerful to see it connect craft, healing, and community across so many countries in one project.

The book is amazing and I am looking forward to reading it in detail. The only issue is the smell of the ink, which is so strong I can't handle the book for long because it nearly makes me ill. I am not sure what was used to print this book but please-change printers!
