I've never been a great sewer. I just kinda start and hope for the best. My stitches always hold up, but they're never pretty. Could you do a video on the stitching you did here and how to tie it off? I have some jeans I need to patch. Thanks 😊
That's a great idea! I'll have to put this video subject on my to-do list. Your hand stitching will get better with practice. And remember, it doesn't have to be prefect. It just has to get the job done.
I love this! Unfortunately, the last pair of pants with holes I threw out, but there are a pair or two I will need to use this technique in the near future
Thank you very much for watching. Please do not forget to subscribe and leave a comment !!
Would a darning stitch not make the edges of the rip stronger than even a whip stitch?

Go for it! Embrace the flaws and make it look interesting.
Where can I purchase the large sheet of patch fabric you are using?
This is a Dritz Denim Iron-On Patching Cloth. It's 9"x12" and you can get it at JoAnn's in the U.S.
What kind of thimble are you using?
I’m using the Dritz soft comfort thimble.
