We have various design options with each piece of clothing: the contrasting color of the patch and thread, the directional lines of the patch and threads, the size of the patch in relation to the garment, the value of the patch, and so on. But we may also concentrate on the rip itself and allow that form to guide our mending and sewing. The stitches surrounding the rip may truly shine if the outside lines of the patch are kept simple—just a running stitch to bind the borders to the fabric. We can use a basic design approach while still producing high visual appeal by tacking down the edge of the hole and showing a high-contrast patch. This is one of my go-to quick cures.
Knee Patch Interior Jeans
1.Place the garment on your work table flat. If necessary, iron. Add 12 to 1 inch (1.3-2.5 cm) to all the edges of the hole or rip. Build a generous patch: it’s preferable to make a patch that’s too large than one that’s too small. If your rip is 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide, make a patch 2 or 3 inches (5–7.5 cm) wide. This will enable you to stitch your patch into sturdy fabric and cover the hole as well as the damaged, torn, or weakening regions surrounding it.
2. Cut the patch out of the leftover cloth using the dimensions from Step 1.
3.Tuck the patch into the ripped clothing. The patch for this project fits inside the trouser leg since it patches a hole near the knee. At first, pin the patch to the top of the pant leg just at the top, so you don’t stitch the leg close (after all, you want to wear the pants). Using a fabric marker, trace the patch.
4. Thread the needle, knot the thread at one end, and enter the needle from behind the clothing, keeping the knot concealed beneath. Stitch around the perimeter of the patch with a running stitch (see this page) until all of the under edges are stitched down. Tie off thread on the bottom of the garment.
5. Remove the fray from the inside of the hole. This will provide a crisp edge for the subsequent stitches. Fold and pin the trimmed hole edges. This results in the cleanest, most basic repair of a ripped hole. This approach is fantastic.
6. Thread a needle, knot one end of the thread, and enter the needle from the inside of the garment, keeping the knot concealed. Insert the needle approximately 14 inches (6 mm) from the hole’s edge and sew a running stitch (see this page) along the perimeter of the hole until all edges are stitched down. These stitches will provide a completed edge where the hole previously was, concealing any frayed edges and resulting in a polished minimum repair.
