Here we have an item on the “jobs I’ve been procrastinating” list - fixing the elastic in my work pants. I need to replace 2 little bits of elastic in 5 separate pairs of pants, and I have just been putting it off because it seemed so fiddly! Turns out - yes fiddly. No where near as difficult as I thought though. So we are one elastic down, 9 more bits to go!

Repost @repairingfashion ・・・ This participant at the Fashion Fix repair event last Saturday absolutely loved learning three different #darning techniques from @karhina03 who so generously volunteered to help us (thank you so much Tamara!!) We stayed back an extra hour so she could finish the sections in the first picture and the remainder was finished the following day. #vamff #MelbFashFest #vamffartsprogram #rmitfashion #rmit #fashionfix #visiblemending #slowstitch #worthholdingonto #handrepair #mendingpile #mendingmatters (at RMIT University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9oadLznOmN/?igshid=1i8wowdanpz1

#craftychristmas 3 December- my stitched Advent Calendar. I found the pattern for this piece in the CrossStitcher Magazine when I was at university. It's missing a couple of squares- they're in my "to mend" pile- I've still got a week and a half until they're needed! . . #christmas #crossstitch #crossstitchersofinstagram #embroidery #mendingpile #quilting #advent #advent2017

A 1940's wedding dress that needs a little TLC. She's been in my mending and wash pile for several months... It's time to shower her with some restorative love. #thelifeofavintageseller #mendingpile #vintagerestoration #1940svintage #vintageclothingstore (at Vivian Vintage 8)

1932 jodhpurs (the manufature date was written on the tags! so cool) 1/4: I got these last year from a mouse-filled basement box and all need repairs. However they all fit me so I may not sell them 🙊 or repair them 😂 #vintage #mending #mendingpile #1930s #30sjodhpurs #jodhpurs #huntingpants #ridingpants #antique #oldclothes #custommade #boatsailpockets #laceup #vintagepants #truevintage #fashion #style #1930s #30sfashion #30sstyle #mensvintage #menswear #vintagemenswear #history #historicalfashion #vintagegirl

A Sneak Peak + A Restoration This little number will arrive in the shop next week. She's an unfinished dress I purchased from an estate sale weeks ago! I'm finally, getting around to mending her. Don't you just love homemade clothing from the sixties? She so lovely... the epitome of spring! Stay tuned!... #vintagerestoration #mending #mendingpile #prettyvintage #vintagepretty #springvintagefair #vintagefashion #vintagefinds #1960svintage #etsyvintageclothing (at Vivian Vintage 8)
