It does all this through just four very simple mending techniques: exterior patches, interior patches, slow stitches, darning, and weaving. In addition, the book addresses the way mending leads to a more mindful relationship to fashion and to overall well-being. In essays that accompany each how-to chapter, Katrina Rodabaugh explores mending as a metaphor for appreciating our own naturally flawed selves, and she examines the ways in which mending teaches us new skills, self-reliance, and confidence, all gained from making things with our own hands. 650 0 Clothing and dress|xRepairing. 650 0 Sewing|xTechnique. 650 0 Denim. 650 0 Jeans (Clothing) 700 1 Pearson, Karen|c(Photographer),|ephotographer.
