Synopsis

Filled with inspirational images of Hikaru Noguchi's work, this is the perfect guide for those interested in preserving their garments and fabrics with mending techniques.

The invention of the Darning Brooch allows you to give new life to precious fabric fragments you can't bear to part with by creating accessories that you can keep, gift or wear. Use the fabric and thread you have at home to make these beautiful pieces, each one of which will be unique to you. All the basic darning stitches are included for beginners with step-by-step photographs, so you can mend your clothes and save them from landfill, as well as preserving memories by turning your fragments into mementos. If you prefer not to wear visible mending on your clothes, you can wear them as accessories instead.

No previous sewing experience is necessary and full instructions for creating the brooches is included. This is the only darning book you will ever need.
