Its so much better. Nice round-up. I am a big fan of patching! I think even if one never moves beyond patching every one should know how to patch a hole. Its such a useful skill!BLD in MThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08497511995276601468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-3911613101246907772014-03-22T11:02:23.457-04:002014-03-22T11:02:23.457-04:00Loved this post..

So not a lot of knee patches to be done.. But, I did patch a pair of hubby's jeans ,the other day.. The back pocket caught on something, and tore a hole at the corner. Of course,this was not fun..just patched jeans with old denim jeans.ha [I don't think he would let me add a pretty cherry fabric on his back pocket area,ha]<br />I do have some hot pads, that I intend to do some patching.. thanks for sharing.Sew Blessed Maw [Judy]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15474519379303505290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-28991709449808911282014-03-21T15:11:36.987-04:002014-03-21T15:11:36.987-04:00I just love mended things:) I just love mended things:) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671274548784394212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-35943066351311414892014-03-21T02:10:44.326-04:002014-03-21T02:10:44.326-04:00I've just patched a tear in my kitchen hand to...I've just patched a tear in my kitchen hand towel with some fabric left from a cushion I made in secondary school :-)<br /><br />Bridget- it;s my son's trousers that need most patching in this house. When I cut some camouflage trousers off to make shorts I kept the legs and most of his patches are from those legs, reinforced with random stitching. Not girly! His favourite patch though, is some orange fabric behind the hole in the knee of his jeans, that shows more when he walks. <br />Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05388175819512214533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-45477641335448139722014-03-20T21:13:29.945-04:002014-03-20T21:13:29.945-04:00Love the pj bottoms.

I always feel like I should patch my sons jeans/pants when the knee comes open, but there is just something so feminine about patches in my mind. Perhaps I should find something to patch on my daughters' stuff. :)Bridget Greenhttp://lerhreims.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-10886157296699997702014-03-20T13:31:47.642-04:002014-03-20T13:31:47.642-04:00You've given me an idea - I have a quilt my gr...You've given me an idea - I have a quilt my grandmother made, but a number of the pieces have frayed. I had hoped to restore it by replacing those, but it would be simpler (and, to me, more interesting) to patch over the frayed areas as you've done here. <br /><br />Your hotpads ARE pretty! And I love the idea of covering up logos with a cool patch.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-32943134392810908902014-03-20T11:25:43.639-04:002014-03-20T11:25:43.639-04:00(I can just picture each partner yelling and cling...(I can just picture each partner yelling and clinging to no avail. . . ) I'm so glad to know I'm not the only one who can hear inanimate object's voices!!
