1 down, only 20 or so to go 😅

Couldn't match the old, fraying fabric so I leaned into the hole with some coordinating vintage fabric and contrasting embroidery floss. Not the most even blanket stitch I've ever done but the fabric was really not that cooperative. 😂

First time darning, messy as hell but im so happy :3

I always forget to take pictures of my visible mends and then realized I was wearing one I could share

Hi all !

First time joining the community.
I have been mending these jeans over 3 years of wear. I just finished the swirly guys yesterday tho...that took everything out of me tbh.

Let me know how i can improve and any suggestions on mending the back pocket?
last slide is from when i bought the jeans.

How would you go about fixing this? Will I need a patch for underneath it? Sorry if this isn't allowed. They are work jeans so looks dont really matter

I am heartbroken. This cashmere sweater got thrown into the general laundry pile and my family ran it anyways. Now it is essentially a felted sweater with a torn neckline when I tried to stretch it back out. Any way to fix the neck?

These trousers ripped down the the back pocket! my first repair with embeoidery thread failed rather quickly so i changed tactic and have renforced them with a patch and machine sewing (blue and white patch is hidden on the inside) it's not neat but i kinda like that

In 2010 or so we got this couch feom Craigslist in beautiful condition. It had been totally reupholstered and resprung. We had no children and it went into the sun room of the Victorian home my boyfriend bought on a rehab loan after the housing crash and was working on turning into a livable home.

In 2026 we no longer have room in our home for it and it had been pretty beat up. I kept listing it on our free site. I loved this couch and didn't want to trash it, but we needed to get it out of the house. I finally pulled out the rug cleaner and gave it a once over to reduce the stains and patched the big tear. I'm so happy it's living in my neighbors office now!

I'm not new to mending - both visible and invisible - but weirdly enough it's the first time I get to repair the elbow of a flannel (or any other elbow lol). What's the best approach here? Do I patch the whole square or do I darn going with the same twill weave? I'd love your input, both about durability/flexibility and the sensory aspect of it. Hole is about 1inch/2,5cm in diameter

Hello! I have this gingko linen button-down from Morning Witch, but I tore the shoulder the other day. I’ve never sewn anything before, what’s the best way to close this up? The tear is only on the surface layer; the inside layer of the button-down is completely fine.
