Mending a Tear
• Trim ragged edges.
•
Place* underlay on the wrong side of tear
for reinforcement. (Do not baste or pin the
underlay,
since
you
will
be
bringing
the
edges together in the next step).
•
Stitch on the right side, bringing the edges
of the tear together. Shorten stitch length at
ends and corners to give extra strength.
• Trim underlay.
