I have always taken a practical, functional approach to mending...not really tapping in to the creative side of it. I never thought about it. This book was a real eye-opener!<br /><br />The heart patches look sweet and I love what you did with that sweater.

That bit was great, but she decided (for fun!) to add a hot pink heart to the bum too.... I was a mortified tween LOL<br /><br />Your mending looks great. I don't get to mend much as the boys have usually grown out of clothes or if they are ours, they are well past mending and only fit for rags. But you've inspired me to keep an eye out for mending jobs that can be done with flair.Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10798861028989004417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948397622243147877.post-24194772796086361902012-08-30T10:57:24.224+10:002012-08-30T10:57:24.224+10:00A book on mending.....who would have thought.
