I put my family and job ahead of my own needs, got real efficient at "running shit", and further away from my creativity. Garment sewing and writing stories about it on my blog had become my main self-care practice because it was freeing me from an adulthood of ill-fitting ready-to-wear (I am short and curvy) and fully engaged my brain and hands in something meant just for me. When I stopped keeping and making sewing promises to myself, I was determined to find out why and began a quiet journey of self-examination. I re-read the book by bell hooks that saved me in college, Sisters of the Yam: Black Women & Self-Recovery and began some much needed inner work and healing. The process is on-going. When the pandemic hit, I was triggered back into SBM mode. This time I recognized it! Those lost sewjo feelings were my call to action. I reached out to the sewing community, found out I wasn't alone and started writing, plugging holes in my self-care, and therapy-sewing my way out of the shadows. I called it my Sewjo Reclamation Project and immediately created my first sewing social media meme with an image from the movie, How Stella Got Her Groove Back. From there, I decided to self-publish my first writings as a for-profit ebook instead of on my blog. This is a transition for my platform that aligned with my 2019 transition to independent consulting from 20 years in the tech industry. The first chapter of my ebook is called "3 Reasons Why Passionate Women Lose Their Sewing Mojo" and is available for free download by my email subscribers. They will be the first to know when the ebook is available for purchase in September. To bring awareness to my Sewjo Reclamation Project, I have also begun live-streaming answers to questions from the sewing community about sewjo reclamation to my Instagram followers. Sharing my ideas, stories, and vulnerabilities has been its own healing experience. My intention is to help other passionate women reclaim their sewjo by transforming their craft into a ritual of self-care.

Lisa's Cancelled 50th Birthday Party Donations Here: Patreon Paypal Cash AppThanks so much to ShanailR for sharing her image for this episode and for telling us about her experience in medical care providers battle against COVID19.Research: Here are some of the articles I read to better understand the efficacy of homemade masks as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).3M has doubled its production of N95 masks to a rate of 100 million a month. No certainly that it's enough. And based on the current shortage, it doesn't seem to be enough.Testing the Efficacy of Homemade Masks: Would They Protect in an Influenza Pandemic? from the journal Disaster Medicine and Public Health PreparednessCenters for Disease Control guidance on Facemasks includes the following comment on homemade masks (note: HCP = Health Care Provider): "In settings where facemasks are not available, HCP might use homemade masks (e.g., bandana, scarf) for care of patients with COVID-19 as a last resort. However, homemade masks are not considered PPE, since their capability to protect HCP is unknown. Caution should be exercised when considering this option. Homemade masks should ideally be used in combination with a face shield that covers the entire front (that extends to the chin or below) and sides of the face."The World Health Organization issued interim guidance in January 2020 about "Advice on the use of masks in the context of nCoV outbreak." The briefing document talked about not re-using masks and proper protocols for wearing them (for which I have included an additional link below). The final line of the paper is striking: "Cloth (e.g. cotton or gauze) masks are not recommended under any circumstance."To Mask or Not to Mask?Why Telling People They Didn't Need Masks Backfired, an opinion piece in the New York Times about the benefits of masks. You can get free access to the New York Times COVID19 articles by registering an email.When and How to Use Masks from the World Health OrganizationBest Materials for Masks: Please read to understand the very limited effectiveness homemade masks against COVID19. It is better than nothing. Some materials are better than others. Locations that asked for masks but no longer needs them: Deaconess Hospital in Indiana has met their need. Providence Hospital in Washington State has given out enough kits to make 100 million masks with special medical grade materials. Who is NEEDS masks: I am asking for support for my city.The Mutual Aid Infrastructure of Charlottesville, VA--FB group is hereThe University of Virginia Hospital. Contact information to mail masks is here:LaDelle GayVolunteer Coordinator, Volunteer ServicesUVA Health1215 Lee Street, Room 1650Box 800668Charlottesville, VA 22908Phone: 434.243-4009Fax: 434.243.5872If you want to help...My suggestion is to act locally. If your hospital is not accepting masks for clinical use, the Medical Staff Office for hospital administration might be glad to have them. Call the following local places to see if they would accept homemade masks. Ask if they have guidelines (filter pocket?) or a preferred pattern. Arrange to mail or drop off some to be picked up from your car: Medical offices (where people most still come to work to manage the medical/patient administration, in cubicles where social distancing is limited), Primary Care Providers: pediatricians, internal medicine, geriatricians (especially important, I'd think, for dealing with older patients), long term acute care facilities, urgent care offices, nursing homes, hospice care, jails and prisons, dialysis centers.Here are some social media organizations working on mask making and other me-made projects.Relief Crafters of America on FacebookWe Need Masks.org connects makers with medical facilities for mask distribution. Patterns and TutorialsSewing My Style has a tutorial on her IG highlights using 10 by 10 fabric squares. These are sometimes called layer cakes.

Note: My most recent JoAnn's flyer includes pattern sale information. This is different than the "surprise" version of last month's pattern sale. Whether the omission was an oversight or an experiment, the response I gleaned from shoppers was unfavorable. The store may indeed need to "wean" customers from reliance on pattern sales, but that was not the way to go about it.Support the Stitch Please podcast and Black Women Stitch$15 to the Paypal account for a Black Women Stitch lapel pin!
