Show Notes

In this episode of Threads of Sustainability, we delve into the innovative world of FeelGood Fibers with founder Kim Soper. The concept of FeelGood Fibers emerged from a simple observation: the lack of a centralized marketplace for buying and selling secondhand fabrics within the sewing community.

Kim shares the journey behind FeelGood Fibers, which was sparked by the abundance of destash sales on Instagram feeds. Recognizing the inconvenience of accessing these fabrics unless one followed specific destashers, Kim envisioned a solution – a single platform where sewists could easily destash and purchase secondhand fabrics online.

FeelGood Fibers was born out of a passion for fabric and a belief that destashing fabric should be hassle-free and accessible to all. Kim's vision transformed into a vibrant online destination where sewists can browse various secondhand fabrics, fostering sustainability and community within the sewing world.

Join us as we explore the ethos behind FeelGood Fibers, its impact on sustainable sewing practices, and the journey of creating a centralized hub for fabric enthusiasts to destash and shop easily. Tune in to discover how FeelGood Fibers is revolutionizing how we approach fabric destashing in the sewing community.
