A few mends on this gorgeous pink coat, repairing the armpits where the fabric had worn down with various shades of pink in areas, and then a green and pink woven pattern.

Damaged after a misjudged slut drop, the tear in the back of this light denim dress was repaired and embellished with some contrasting yellow-golden embroidery thread.

Another knee hole repair, this time with yellow sashiko style crosses to patch these dark blue jeans.
