I will wear my favorite clothes until they turn to dust. My favorite pair of jeans had a hole in them and I patched it up with some indigo fabric. I’m very inspired by the Boro fabrics of Japan and how they patch their textiles as an act of preservation and care.
It’s easy to do - I only needed a scrap piece of fabric, needle, thread, and a darning hoop. There’s no rhyme or reason to any type of stitching it’s pretty free flowing. I love how meditative it is!
I think it also adds a lot of charm and character to the textile. I can’t wait to keep wearing these pants forever 💙
