Fixing a hole in a garment involves anchoring the thread, picking fabric from one edge of the hole, and then picking fabric from the other end, going back and forth to secure it.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Anchoring the Thread: Begin by knotting your thread securely. This creates the foundation for your repair.
-
Picking Fabric: Carefully select a small amount of fabric from one side of the hole.
-
Opposite Side: Pick a corresponding amount of fabric from the opposite side of the hole.
-
Back and Forth: Continue this process, alternating between picking fabric from one side and then the other. This back-and-forth motion effectively closes the hole. As you sew, ensure you're anchoring the thread firmly with each stitch to create a strong and durable repair.
