-
Lay the woven textile on a flat surface with the tear fully exposed.
-
Check how large the tear is, where it is on the item, and whether it is fraying at the edges.
-
Consider: this repair will be visible at the end, so you might wish to use a matching thread colour - or - you might want to celebrate this memory with some contrast colour thread! Think about how you want the final repair to look before starting.

-
Prepare the needle with the thread.
-
Turn the defective product inside-out, and pinch the broken edges together, so that they are facing towards you.
-
Pass the needle through both pieces of fabric, starting at one end of the hole. Tie a knot to secure it, and pull gently. Be careful not to bunch the fabric, especially if it is lightweight and thin.
-
-
-
Continue sewing along the hole with a regular sewing technique; passing the needle through both pieces of fabric from one side, then from next side, and so on.
-
Work your way along the seam until the entire hole is closed. Before Making a knot, check whether you think the repair is strong enough - if not, repeat the sewing procces back along the hole to the starting point.

Make a knot at the end of the repair.

Make a final test of the repair by lightly stretching the area.

Trim off the excess thread
