Bizz chats with Megan about maker hobbies like sewing, crafting, knitting, etc.. With maybe a little tangent on the joys of cat ownership.

Things we talk about:

• Getting creative with what we already have
• Not being afraid to experiment
• Sourcing the best materials available to us
• Using all the little pieces
• Making new things out of old things
• Buying used tools and equipment, especially when just getting started
• Normalizing second hand
• Repairing and dying to lengthen the life of our clothing
• What to do with "unusable" scraps
• "Recyclable" doesn't always mean it's recyclable
• Plastic spools replacing wooden spools
