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. Visible mending adds beauty and value to our pieces and is also a vital step toward reducing waste.
