Mending is not just about fixing holes and tears. It's about restoring the beauty and functionality of your garments while preserving their unique story and sentimental value. Our manual provides step-by-step instructions for various mending techniques, including:

Darning: Repairing holes or worn areas with a needle and thread
Patching: Covering up tears or stains with a piece of fabric
Appliqué: Adding decorative elements to clothing using fabric, lace, or other materials
