if you live in a place that has a local fabric store, go there! They should have needles and thread there. You can also buy a basic cheap sewing kit online, or ask older family members and friends if they know anyone with a sewing machine they don’t use. You’d be surprised how many older women were taught how to sew as a child and just never got rid of the sewing machine. Go thrifting for items to upcycle and YouTube has plenty of upcycling tutorials! Hope this helps!
