DIY Visible Mend for Jeans – inspired by Boro mending

By letter2self on June 29, 2023



Did you know it was Mend it May? Didja know it was Me Made May?!
IT’S BOTH!

This mending technique is great for a funky addition to your pants. I’m all for funky additions, so when the hole in my artistically ripped jeans started getting big enough to catch my toe I thought of this patch.

This is great if your pants are stretchy and have holes. Keep in mind if you have stretchy pants, your patch should probably be stretchy too.

In this vid Me Made May is represented by my scarf that Rosalie and Kelly taught a call on at Craftcation. Reverse appliqué for LIFE!

Next week I’ll show you how to a more discrete mend for your more discrete rips… *ahem* in your crotch.
