But it doesn’t tell us much about the rivers, land, ecosystems, or Native nations that existed long before those borders and still sustain life now.\n\nWe wanted to imagine a different kind of symbol. One that feels less about ownership and control, and more about connection, movement, and life itself.\n\nWe’re trading stars and stripes for galaxies and rivers.\n\n2 transfers are 4.25\" by 5.5\".\n1 transfer is 4.25\" by 11\".\n\nHow to Use Your Visible Mending Transfers\n\nPrep Your Fabric: Make sure your fabric is clean and dry before starting.\n\nChoose Your Design: Pick one of the four designs from the set.\n\nApply the Transfer: Place the transfer design with the printed side facing the fabric. Gently press to activate the adhesive.\n\nStitch: Use a needle and thread to stitch along the design, following the printed lines. Feel free to add your own flair or skip areas you don't like.\n\nRinse and Reveal: Once your stitching is complete, rinse the fabric to remove the stabilizer.
