SAVE TIME AND MONEY REPAIRING YOUR OWN CLOTHES

Have you ever gotten rid of a favorite shirt because a seam was ripped? Do you pay high tailoring prices just to have a simple button sewn or pants hemmed? When you do repairs, do you use tape, staples and safety pins rather than a needle and thread? A new book, Hand Mending Made Easy: Save Time and Money Repairing Your Own Clothes by Nan L. Ides, is about to change all of that.

Hand Mending Made Easy, specifically written for the non-sewer, demonstrates in twelve easy, illustrated lessons how to mend those valuable clothes right in your own home. Nan instructs readers on sewing different types of buttons, snaps, hooks, repairing small ripped seams, patching holes in pants, and different ironing techniques, among other skills.
