Episode 075: Atsushi of @sashikostory and @upcyclestitches
In this episode we: reflect over the importance of documenting and sharing stories, wonder over how to sew without knots, consider how thread can strengthen fabric, and decide that yes, we would totally watch a sitcom about a couple of threads that go to a party (which ends in a surprise wedding).
