et alors toi-même, sans que personne ne te le dise, tu devineras qui use de la violence, qui sont les véritables destructeurs."

P85. " [...] essaie de savoir, si tu l’ignores, qui sont les propriétaires des dépôts d’armes, à qui appartiennent les fabriques de dynamite, quelle classe finance l’invention de terribles outils de destruction,...

que nous nous préoccupions de notre triste sort et du sombre avenir que l’on nous réserve.
Unissons-nous, formons des groupes où nous pouvons nous instruire, car c’est à cause de l’ignorance que nous ne nous rendons pas compte de ce que nous sommes et de ce que nous devrions être."

P70."Nous nous tenons à l’écart les uns des autres à cause de mensonges et nous avançons désunis, en nous inventant des rivalités que les ennemis du progrès social exacerbent pour mieux nous exploiter.
Il est donc nécessaire, compagnes et compagnons,...

à ne recevoir pour toute instruction qu’un tas d’inepties, de sophismes et de superstitions qui atrophient notre intelligence plutôt que de la stimuler."

P.42 "Certains diront que notre intelligence est inférieure à celle des hommes. Même si certains pseudo-savants l’affirment, les individus érudits le nient. Quant à moi, j’affirme qu’on ne peut pas décréter notre infériorité tant qu’on nous maintient dans un cadre étriqué,...

De même, à l’école, les filles reçoivent une éducation très superficielle par rapport aux garçons, car tout leur temps est consacré à la prière et aux exercices de #couture. Ainsi, une fois adultes, elles restent prisonnières du poids de ce qu’on leur a enseigné."

et leurs mères, soumises à une morale détestable, les retiennent auprès d’elles, leur imposant de jouer, sagement assises, à la maman avec leurs poupées.

Une photographie en couleur présente la couverture d'un livre intitulé Femmes unissons-nous de Teresa Claramunt. La couverture est blanche avec un symbole violet entrelacé derrière le titre. L'éditeur du livre semble être "NADA". L’ouvrage repose sur un sol en bois clair, avec un coin légèrement plié et des traces d'usure visibles sur la couverture.

Une photographie en noir et blanc montre une femme vêtue de sombre, tenant une pancarte ou un document entre ses mains. Son visage est sérieux et le fond semble être un mur en pierre ou en béton. La page du livre où cette photo apparaît contient du texte en français mentionnant une date et un lieu : Barcelone, 1er mai.

Teresa Claramunt (1862-1831),ouvrière anarcho-syndicaliste et pionnière du #féminisme espagnol, surnomée la "Louise Michel" de Barcelone appelle les femmes à s'organiser afin de renverser le #capitalisme et le #patriarcat pour qu'advienne l'anarchie.

🌩️ Unbelievable! The talented & warm-hearted #sewist @duckgoesoink has just been suspended—flagged as spammy, fake, or inauthentic. The most shocking part? A moderator reviewed and confirmed it. Automated or human—what the heck, @bsky.app? This is dampening my enthusiasm for this platform! #sewsky

interesting! Did they also reference the home sewing sections or was it mostly styling inspiration?

Les Modes de la femme de France Les Modes de la femme de France -- 1921-08-07 -- fascicules

oh yes! I meant to add it but got distracted by a call 😄 Here’s the direct link: gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/b...

📌I stumbled across this mind-blowing online archive of "La Femme de France", a French weekly fashion magazine that ran from 1915–26. It can be consulted on the BNF (National Library of France)🔗⬇️ The most exciting part: I spotted many #MinimalWasteDesign patterns! #fashionhistory #garmentsewing

Excellent! Nothing is more comfortable than strolling around in bed sheets, just an extension of bedtime! Haha

Choosing a nice fabric to test a toile is the best! I do this a lot using vintage bed sheets from charity shops, and I've had so many pleasant surprises. Sometimes, the toile turns out even better than the intended garment!

They can only feel amazing in such a nice costume!

Cover of the book “Couture zero chute”, with 5 models wearing some of the designs included in the book. (Models are the 2 authors, 1 man, 1 plus-sized white woman, 1 black woman)

This book just arrived and my mind is blown 🤯 🤩

It’s a French-language book about #zeroWaste #garmentSewing by @reformonsnous.com, and I love everything about it: the colors, the diverse models, the designs, the cutting layouts, the wordplay…

Will take it slowly and start planning my first piece!

That's so cool that it caught your husband's eye too!! We fought so hard for the publisher to accept the genderless aspect, so reading this is a real win for me! 🙌

I've been told it can be ordered in any French bookshop locally! But it's not something you see everywhere… 😏

Oh, thank you so much! 😳🥹 I'm glad you're enjoying it so far! It was really important for us not to get stuck in the serious vibe that waste-related topics usually bring. we needed something that would trigger a smile! And coming up with a few wordplays was definitely the funniest part for us!

Haha ! Mind connection🔌⚡️👩‍🔧

Same! Especially with electronics, like repairing a broken printer or coffee machine. So many items could be saved from landfills if we learned how to repair the basics at school!

They look so comfy! Must be a joy to wear them. Having mending skills is so valuable...I admire what you do

Haha, I definitely racked my brain for those cutting layouts! I'm looking forward to your feedback. Don't hesitate to get in touch for any questions!

Oh nice feature, thanks for the settings tip! Will do that to get the reminder

Yeah, and a lifesaver for when one's belly fluctuates during a period; so comfy and practical!

Oh, cool! Thank you, Hinerangi, for your support 💌! I hope you'll enjoy the experience. it's quite different from what I used to develop, methodologically speaking. 'Slowly' is the perfect word—it truly captures what’s needed to fully enjoy the experience! 🤭
