Hey, I'm looking for some help fixing these pants. They are some of my wife's favorites and I also really like them but I messed up today and said that it might soon be time to get a new pair.

She didn't take that well and has been upset for the last hour after informing me that the company that made them went out of business so she can't just replace them.

I want to fix them so she doesn't feel like they are going to fall apart on her but I don't know much about sewing. I did help my grandmother a little when I was younger, but that was 25 or 30 years ago now.

I was going to go get a small sewing machine shortly and fix them while she is out with friends tonight to surprise her but someone on sewing for beginners said that it will probably need to be hand sewn anyway. So now I need help figuring out if I should just patch the inside to reinforce them, or if there is a better option to make her feel good in them again, and if a machine is a good idea or if they will need to be hand sewn.

Thanks for any advice you can give me.

Tl;dr: What the title says.

I left my woolen coat inside my closet during the summer, and I pulled it out today and it looks like this. What actually happened? Can it be fixed? Please help :(
Thank you

Hello everyone! I have no idea how these bedsheets ended up being torn this way (almost a perfect circle cutout), but my roommate requested me to fix them and I just can't figure out a way to do it. It was mended before (by hand I suppose) but the stitching was very uneven and the sheet still keeps ripping. Is it actually possible to repair this hole completely? Any suggestions on possible methods? Thanks a lot!

I was told this might be a better option. I sewed a pair of pants but while doing the zipper portion accidentally ripped a hole with my seam ripper.

I love the air essentials sets I have. Lighten comfortable and flattering. I’m a size 16 and get compliments all the time when I wear them.

But for the love of go, what up with how delicate the fabric is? The material gets snagged on everything & threads get pulled.how do I fit them or prevent them all together?

Its the lining of a jacket, I wear the sleeves folded over so its visible - and breaking 🥲

How can I fix this?

My daughter got a small hole in her pants next to the waistband and side seam and so far I’ve ironed in some stretch interfacing but I don’t know how to reinforce it. I have some matching polyester thread and sharp sewing needles or I can use a machine. How do I fix it so she can wear them without reopening the tear?

hi! completely new to mending, wondering if I could get some tips on mending spots in this type of fabric, I don't have any fabric to cut off and bring to colour match, so any tips on that is welcome!

I have an older Burr jacket that has some big holes in the elbows from wear. Is there canvas or good martial patches to fix them? Love how the jacket has aged and want to keep it going. It’s olive.

Regrettably the garment is in worse shape than the seller advertised. I understand felting is easy and delivers good results for garments like woollen knitwear, but I dont think it would be appropriate for a garment with a structured twill weave such as this.

So I'm looking at invisible darning/Swiss darning as my mending method, but I've never done it before and am quite confused about how to go about it. Also whether I should even bother attempting it myself.

Any advice would be very helpful! Thanks

Leaned against a hot stove and burned my favourite jacket, it has a lot of sentimental value because it was my dad's for many many years. I'm very sad. Anyone have tips on how I can mend this?

I have sewing supplies and okay sewing skills. I've mended socks before...

If anyone could give me some advice I'd be very very happy.

I bought this Vince top secondhand, and I'm not sure if I didn't notice the pleats were messed up in the middle when I got it or.if they somehow fell out in storage. Can these be restored by a dry cleaner? Tailor? Does it look like someone steamed or ironed this, or could this just be from being stored incorrectly?

The fabric is of poor quality but its not stretchy. I really am not sure where or now to even begin, any suggestions?
