This is how we start the repair, it is better to repair this size before it ends up enlarging.



In the summer one likes his pants with their ruts, but in the winter with the cold and when the rut is also getting very ugly or very big, what we tend to do is put a patch on it and fix it.

You can see which side of the pants is the single seam.


The first thing we have to do, and since one especially thinks about these pants that now come in a very tight tube, it is very difficult for you to enter the machine to be able to sew inside and put the patch on it.


It is unstitched on the side of the simple seam, once it has been undone, with a certain distance that is comfortable for sewing; You are going to look for pieces or bits of fabric such as they are on both legs that we are going to do in these pants, a little bit longer than the ripped one and wider.

When sewing, the pins are removed so they are out of the way when sewing.


The ideal is to sew and reinforce the edge of the patch because it will be on the inside and that way the patch will last longer.

Once they have it prepared, they proceed to take the patch, and it will depend on you how you like it, there are people who only sew a seam all around where the hole or opening is, and there are others, there are other people who They like to zig-zag, up and down as you think it looks prettier or as you like best.


They can do both, also make a square and then they make the zigzag as in my case, also some other color in the thread to give it a personal touch.

Check the seam with a separate fabric, this allows you to regulate the tension of the threads.


You always have to test the seam with a separate fabric, since this changes depending on the fabric, here you can see that I test it in zingzag.

This is the final result of other patches on the garment.


It is advisable to sew a little closer to the edge of the patch on the outside, in this case you do not have to worry much because the thread will not show much, you can use a thread that shows as little as possible and as I said before if you They are going to wear, for example, a yellow shirt, if they want they can put a yellow thread on this patch, imagination is the limit.


When you already have the patch on, we not only have to turn the pants over and sew the open side, remember that, for a good finish, you have to reverse the machine, this is done when you start sewing and when you finish


Well that's all, I can only say that they are encouraged to repair their pants, that in this way we contribute to the fact that this world does not get too polluted, since a large amount of water is required to manufacture a single pair of pants; and therefore it is good to get the most out of our clothes.


take care…
