Creative Mending

Popped a stitch? Worn out the knees of your favourite jeans? Holes in your warmest hand knit socks?

It's not the end of life sentence you may think, simply an opportunity in disguise.

Creative mending can bring new life to your favourite, well loved piece.

Mending projects are vast and varied as are their prices. Minimum price is 10$.

Embroidery

Embroidery is a great way to embellish, personalize or even mend any piece.

I have a Brother NQ1400E embroidery machine. The largest frame can fit a 10 inch by 6 inch design in PES format.

My favourite sites to find designs are urbanthreads.com and emblibrary.com

Embroidery projects are vast varied as are the prices. Minimum is 15$.
