Love your blog, so grateful you have assembled a knowledge/resource library like this! 👍
Just noticed that one of my vintage Hawaiian shirts I've had for a few years had a few holes in it (an easy to hide fraying at the seam under the collar) and some random holes that just appeared at one side 🤷
Inspired by some of the fixes you've shared I cut away some of the fluffy fray and attempted to secure it with some darning as I really wanted to make it subtle but sturdy enough to last without unraveling. Made life a bit more difficult for myself as I wanted to use multiple coloured threads to blend in with the design as best as I could, and I patched it on a diagonal as this looked better with the flow of the leaf design.
(Ps - shirt was from Beyond Retro, like a curated thrift store online, great sustainable fashion option if you need something "new" and they do sales quite often if anyone wants to check them out! I don't work for them 😂 )
Anyway, keep up the good work!!
[ID: three close-up photo's of a Hawaiian shirt with a purple, beige, and orange flower print. The photo's show the progression of two holes being mended with darning in colours that match the flower print.]
That looks so good! I love how you matched the print's colours.
You've turned those holes into a love letter to this shirt. :)
