There were 2 crochet blankets that flipped corners at me when I read this prompt. Haha

Me too! So I’m tackling them. These are pillow cases, the fabric on the front side has worn through. I’m ripping the seams, will use the backing as the front and use some scraps from my stash as a new backing fabric.

I didn’t think to get a before pic but I just successfully reattached about 5” of the black cord on this chair with invisible thread and a tiny sewing needle (couldn’t find my curved needles). Pretty proud with how well it turned out

Off to google “reverse applique” for ideas, thanks!
I also have to figure out how to mend my new, expensive to us, used ONE TIME screen house that got battered in the wind the other day and impaled itself on unfriendly yard furniture. BOOOOOOO! So bummed. As a “Use it up, wear it out” gal it was like my ONE nice thing around here lol Oh well, now it will match the rest, I suppose.

There’s screen mending stuff that sticks on with the heat of a hairdryer!
Comes on the roll if it’s really messed up.
You could cut out cute shape so it looks like the patches are decorative, haha.
I like #3, the slash & stitch mend. Looks fancy.

There is a woman in another group I belong to that uses the reverse applique method to make beautiful clothing…she uses thrifted crocheted afghans and has them peeking through circles and cut-out of the clothing…

I didn’t have the correct colour, so I went for visible but matching. Mom had some of the white colourway left, and I blended it with some linen thread that was close to the other colour. I think it looks ok!
