Visible Mending: Patching and Embroidery
Visible Mending: Patching and Embroidery
Sustainable Stitches Series Sponsored by Sulky
Visible mending is a technique used for repairing textiles that highlights the beauty of mending. Instead of trying to hide the repair, we allow fabric and thread to show the history, change, and importance of our beloved garments. In this tutorial, Brenda K.B. Anderson will focus on combining patchwork with running stitches and embroidery, to patch holes and cover stains. Click here to download the free pattern.
Visible mending adds beauty and value to our pieces and is also a vital step toward reducing waste. By continuing to care for our clothing, we are keeping textiles from ending up in a landfill and reducing consumption of new clothing.
