The weekend was rainy so I spent some time mending my favorite skirt. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I can confirm there are no holes now. The pocket area is starting to be more patches than skirt, though 🤭

It used to be my daily skirt, then my hiking skirt, then my gardening skirt, now the "let's learn visible mending" skirt. I really like it.

J'ai un peu avancé hier et aujourd'hui en attaquant le vert (il est très désaturé pour aller avec les couleurs du torchon mais du coup on ne le distingue pas des masses du gris...)

The darning will continue until socks improve!

My first attempt at visible mending. A hole in my leggings is now a whole leaf. #VisibleMending

Very happy with today’s mend of my nephew’s torn knee.

Le ptit #défiBroderie qui avance tout doucement (c'est hyper dur parce que j'ai une épaisseur de tissu pas possible entre le tissu éponge + un patch en coton très épais derrière histoire de reboucher le trou dans le torchon...)

My favorite pair of home pants developed holes on one thigh. This shall not be borne!

I've been trying #VisibleMending lately, so here's another try. The biggest leaf is large enough to cover all of the holes, but I wanted to add two more leaves for pure visual balance, and embroidered some decorative elements as well.

My grey woolen sweater was ravaged by moths. I was not going to be defeated so easily, and thought of #visiblemending. It went the Van Gogh way yesternight, so now I have a starry night sweater. IMHO perfect for camping coming spring, if we indeed go to the Alps #upcycling .
