I got fed up of putting our own home repairs on the side so have been tackling a few jobs :
First up, my 32 month old boy Dazaï - trousers in need of patches to cover up holes.
Tweed patches for Dazaï |
A bit of a nautical feel |
This green tee-shirt (below) is a hand-me-down with previous owner's name initially on the back.
After a few people had called my son by the wrong name, I decide to merge two tees in to one.
The green one is the right size, the yellow one has the right name on it !

Then a few hubby repairs.
Lots of holes to be fixed and stains to be covered up.
He's not very careful with his clothes and wears them to death.
Here I come in with my beloved patches !!!
Another tweed patch |
The pocket on the left comes from another pair of jeans. |
Same as for previously picutred pair of jeans. |
My 5 1/2 monthl old boy Sanji:
His problem : totally unremovable stains.
The solution used here, a patch (!) in organic jersey cotton
It sneaks up on the side |
... and covers the stain nicely on the back |
Finally, our outdoors dog Sheeva.
Her bedding was in dire need of some upgrading.
I made a big cushion shape, stuffed with fabric and thread remnants.
I've included a handle so that when I want to shake it out I can hang it up easily. |
And here she is enjoying the new plump-ness !!! |
The seal of approval !!! |
