Care and Repair

Repairing a tear in fabric, patching a worn area, or fixing a zip or a buttonhole can add extra life to a garment or an item of soft furnishing. Repairs like these may seem tedious, but they are very easy to do and well worthwhile. For some of the mending techniques shown here, a contrast thread has been used so that the stitching can be seen clearly. However, when making a repair, be sure to use a matching thread.
