Wear, Repair, Repurpose: A Maker’s Guide to Mending and Upcycling Clothes

What you'll learn in Wear, Repair, Repurpose Embroidery over stains or small holes Do all your shirts have moth holes? Are you a perpetually messy eater? Embroidery floss and a needle are your new best friends. Stains and holes shouldn't ruin perfectly good clothing; instead, look at them as an opportunity for creativity! What was once an imperfection to hide will now be a small moment of joy for people to notice. Darning Darning is a way to repair holes by creating a new woven fabric of vertical and horizontal threads where it is missing. It strengthens and reinforces the existing fabric, because it is incorporated directly into the fabric (as opposed to a patch, which is placed over the top). It's a great way to repair socks because it feels seamless. Upcycling projects Upcycling is a great way to minimize waste by turning unwanted clothes into something useful, instead of throwing them out. Even better, it can be a way to memorialize meaningful clothes that you can't bear to part with. Instead of leaving them sitting in a drawer where you can't appreciate them, you can incorporate them into items for your home that you see and use every day, like a pillow or quilt. Read more
