What even is the point of your comment, honestly?.... the fact is that there are people who smoke cigarettes and getting a hole in clothes like this will almost inevitably happen at some point, yes it'd be great if people didn't smoke, everyone already knows cigarettes areunhealthy, some people are already addicted to nicotine though, and some people simply don't care that cigarettes are unhealthy....
Are you using thicker thread than the normal stuff? I feel like the sewing thread I have is too thin for this. [Beautiful color choice and tutorial by the way ♡]
I have burns in all mmy clothes i need to do this! I stitch them up my own way which makes it look crimped-. Is this standard sewing thread ? It looks a bit thicker on camera , does this way of patching have a name?
How do I finish the repair if the hole is on the top layer of a quilt (so I won’t be able to access the inside of the stitching as it will be inside the quilt if that makes sense?)? Sorry if it’s a stupid question, I’ve never mended a hole before
I'm not 100% sure I'd welcome a weird embroidered spot on my jeans either, to be honest! Maybe stick with the burn hole. As as a non smoker, the chances of it happening to me are fairly remote anyway, unless actually attacked by someone with a cigarette.
It seems like you just created a red circle over the jeans and didn’t actually close up the cigarette hole.. am I right or is that just an illusion? I wish you showed the opposite side because I have a feeling I’m gonna still have a hole with fancy stitching in the middle lol 🤦♀️ … please clarify!!
She just used this color so we could clearly see what she was doing. When actually making your repair, you pick a color that blends into the item you're mending, and this method doesn't stitch up just covers the hole. Depending on what kind of fabric you're mending, this repair will blend in more or less. But will look better at the end than a hole. If you choose thread that matches well and then take your time to make your stitches even and precise.
