How to repair a rip on pants 🧵🪡

While it may seem daunting, the steps are ultimately simple: - Trim around the hole to get rid of frayed edges - Cut your patch to size - Sew around the edge of your patch to create a strong base stitch - Tuck in and iron the raw edges of the hole - Sew a whip stitch around the entirety of the hole to finalize the repair All in all, this repair took me about 45 minutes to do! Both sewing and serging machines were Singer heavy duty. #upcycling #embroidery #handstitched #visiblemending #denimrepair #sewing #patchwork #handsewing #vintagefashion
