Patching Linen Pants: A Step-by-Step Guide
This guide provides a simple method for patching holes or worn areas in your linen pants.
- Prepare the Patch: Cut a patching scrap of fabric that's at least 0.5-1 inch larger than the hole or area you want to cover. This extra fabric allows for secure attachment.
- Position and Secure:
- Turn the linen pants inside out.
- Pin the patch over the hole, ensuring it's centered.
- The pins will hold the patch in place while you sew.
- Sew the Patch: Carefully sew the patch onto the linen pants, ensuring a secure and even stitch around the perimeter of the patch. Remove the pins after sewing.
- Finishing Touches:
- Turn the garment right side out to inspect your work.
- Trim any loose threads for a clean finish.
You're now done! Your linen pants are patched and ready to wear.
