This week on Stitch Please, Lisa is back with Mahdiyyah Muhammad for part 2 of their soulful sewing saga. They dive into denim history, fabric frequencies (yes, cloth has vibes), and why mending is basically ancestral witchcraft. From fast fashion fails to fiber alchemy, it’s a masterclass in making sustainability stylish. Tune in, get stitched, and feel the frequency.

She is also the host/producer of Stitch Please, a weekly audio podcast that centers on Black women, girls, and femmes in sewing.
