Review: Excellent book with examples of how to darn, mend and patch clothes and wear them again. Less waste and landfill, beautiful patchworking and stitchery to make your clothes last longer. Highly recommended.

Review: This isn’t the book for you if you want clear instructions on mending- the written text doesn’t help as step by step illustrations are really needed. I think it assumes a certain level of knowledge and expertise so I wouldn’t recommend this as a beginners practical book.
