Hi!
As promised in the last tutorial, on how to prepare and store the fabric, here we are, today we start with a new playlist dedicated to how to repair and mend fabrics and clothes.
Today we’re going to talk about hand fabric restoration, just to start with something simple. In a future tutorial, however, I will show you how it is possible to repair tears by “rebuilding” the fabric with the sewing machine.

Thank you for watching!!
