Basic Clothing Repair Techniques

"Articles of clothing are just like houses, or anything that is constantly used and exposed to the elements for that matter. If you see any small damage and hold off mending it, the small damage will turn into a big irreparable ruinous before you know it. That is why, seamstress or not, we all should at least have some knowledge of basic clothing repair techniques to save ourselves a trip to a tailor especially if it isn’t really necessary. Before the actual lesson, you must also remember that you should always keep a sufficient supply of mending materials. For starters, an all-purpose thread in white, black and gray will do and a selection of hand sewing needles."
