Visible mending is fun, creative, expressive, and easy. It’s a cost-conscious way to repair holes, rips, stains and other flaws in clothing by hand, and anyone can do it. Common techniques involve patches, appliques, and embroidery, and the idea is to make the repair as showy or as discrete as you like. It’s a great way to make favorite items, heirloom items, and fast fashion pieces last longer and be unique to the wearer. You should bring an item to mend.
