I managed to snag a pair of jeans on something and rip a small hole, so last night I ironed on a patch and fired up my #sewing machine to darn over it. “Hang on,” I thought. “Doesn’t this fancy machine have some darning function?” IT DOES. It uses the automatic buttonhole foot (?!) and sews a custom length back-and-forth dense grid of stitches. You’re meant to then sew another at right angles. I didn’t get them perfectly placed, but it’s fine for a first attempt. This function will definitely be used again! #mending

Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
