Mending
Give your clothing longer life by having it mended and repaired.
-
$5-7 Hand Stitching (sewing on a new button or stitching something simple back together)
-
$12 per patch when done by machine
-
Decorative stitching or colored thread can be used or I can try to match it as much as possible.
Whether a patch can be done by machine or by hand depends on where the tear is on the item of clothing. Most mending must be done by hand. I can only use a sewing machine in some cases.
​Send a picture of each hole or worn spot to be mended and I will send an estimate.
