If you have small children (or have in the past), you will know about pants!!
Over the years I have thrown away a lot of pants or trousers with holes in the knees.
At Christmas my little boy got some lovely soft jeans, but before long they had a hole. . . .
What about a patch? Matching denim is very difficult, so something else was needed.
The eyes of a Ninjago!! (Lego eyes)
I drew the eyes on my yellow fabric in pencil then went over it with my Sharpie marker.
Then using the sewing machine, I went over it with black stitching.
The yellow fabric was attached to a piece of denim, then 'just' sew it into the leg of the jeans!!
I added a similar patch inside the other leg as the fabric is quite thin on that knee as well.
Maybe its a lot of work to save a pair of jeans, but it was fun and he thinks there cool.
One happy customer and a happy Mum.
This looks cool, I won't show my husband as he will want it doing to his jeans !
ReplyDeleteI think there's an age limit for patches on your jeans!! Sarah
