Place patch in position. The stitch length
can be shortened to produce very close

When mending tears, it is advisable to use a
piece of backing fabric to reinforce. The stitch
density can be varied by adjusting the stitch
length. First sew over the centre and then
overlap on both sides. Depending on the type

rows. (2)
