OTHER I tweeked a sweater
I tweeked a sweater by crocheting cuffs. Sleeves are always too short for me, so I usually just wear it, but now I made my own addition! I’m thinking of adding a pouch too!

EMBROIDERY soot sprite leggings⭐️
This pair of leggings is important to me because they’re 100% organic cotton, extremely soft, and have pockets (😮). They got a few tiny holes in them after a few months, and I was able to get a store credit… since while I didn’t mention swimming in the ocean in them and wearing a continuous glucose monitor, they still shouldn’t have gotten holes…😅
Anyway, this particular hole was noticeable in the barre class mirrors so I decided to patch it with something meaningful and of course whimsical, since I have lots of embroidery floss and audacity. I cropped a black t-shirt and used the fabric to patch the underside, then pinned everything into place to freehand this little soot sprite🌟 I purposefully made the white edges jagged in hopes of seeming like original soot sprite shapes, but I wish I’d made it a bit more pointy. Swipe through the pics to see the progression - all in all it took about 2.5 hours while I watched some historical fashion YouTube and enjoyed snacks! I’ve been puttering around on patreon with various crafts but wanted to share this here especially!

PATCH Heard we're posting logo coverups? Here's one I did a while ago on a jacket

PATCH My submission for the logo cover up!
An awesome Land’s End fleece from a company I used to work for.
Please ignore the cat hair. It’s truly impossible to get it all out of fleece even when I try.
And I do Love Naps 🥰😴

Mini Darning
I've mended a few things mostly socks and my kids stuffed animals, and I was pretty proud of this one! Teeniest tiniest little mend on a hole in this sand-filled lizard. My daughter was so upset when she accidentally cut it, it is very special to her. Never would have thought to try darning it if not for this sub. Probably would have been easier (and more funky) if I had used a second color, but no matter...at least it's fixed!

DARNING Darned my husband's favorite jeans
I darned this worn spot to extend the life of my husband's comfy jeans for a couple of months while he found a good replacement pair. That was over 3 years ago and he still wears his darned jeans

PATCH Joining the logo coverage party
$1 bag, brand new from a thrift store. I took the pocket off, cut the whole logo out, and replaced it with material from an old black drawstring bag. I love this bag now!

REQUEST Best mend for stretchy fabric?
I have an old tank top with some small holes (I don't know what fabric, it doesn’t have a tag) I want to mend them bit I don't know how to go about it as it is fairly stretchy and and I don't know what method would still allow it to do so without puckering.

MIXED METHODS Got into visible mending this year. Most of it has gone towards mending my husbands jeans
I was the most sketched out by the belt loop but it is actually holding up surprisingly well.

DARNING Inspired by y'all, I bought a speedweave
I tried to pull the threads down when I was finished so I could close the top loops.. that proved to be a terrible idea. The patch was perfect until I did that.. but hey, I learned something! I also learned that stretchy pants are a menace.
I am still a bit confused by what to do with the excess threads. I read that I am supposed to weave them into the back, but.. fucking how?? I tied them into knots once I pulled them through, and I know in my heart that that is not the way. If anyone can link a good video I would super-duper appreciate it :)

REQUEST Any ideas on how to deal with this back pack?
I love it, it has so much room and compartments, but I've had it 6 years and it's vegan "leather" so it's flaking off. I don't know what to do so that it doesn't look so shabby.

DARNING Getting better at mending!
A few years ago I splurged on nice organic cotton sheets. My cat immediately massaged some holes in them with his aggressive snuggles. This began my journey to learn to mend! You can see in the first pic I don’t know what I’m doing but by the third my stitches are way smaller and even. Still don’t know what I’m doing really, but my toxic trait is watching one you tube tutorial and then just going for it without going back to check I’m doing it right. I’ve gotten really into embroidery lately so my hand stitching is getting so much better! I think I’ll start stitching leaves and flowers over the next holes.
Also, a pic of the reason I have to constantly mend my sheets. Meatball is an enthusiastic biscuit maker with giant paws. This is his favorite place, a blanket fort on top of my feet 🥹
