@GraemeE Looks good! Please share more as you go

Hoping to get this guy finished up in the next day or 2 - it's a little over my head so lots of trial and error.
Have the extra fabric secured and then drew a rough grid with dissolvable sticky paper....now lots of small stitches back and forth

[GraemeE]

Crossed the finish line.
Some parts are cleaner than others but it is now a stucturally stable jacket

@GraemeE well done… looks great. I’m guessing it’s a coin flip between “tedious” and “meditative”

[GraemeE]

@SKT said in Repairs & Modifications:

“tedious” and “meditative”

You hit the nail on the head

Probably slightly more meditative since it's easy to space out and not think about anything else while you are doing it.

Edited…

@GraemeE this came out rad, nicely done

[GraemeE]

@Inorganic thanks man

[Danimal506]

@GraemeE Very cool!

[Mizmazzle]

@GraemeE hell yea dude. So cool to bring back a piece from the dead like that and give it new life. Bet you learned couple tricks along the way…or at least hopefully less thumb pokes as time went on.

[GraemeE]

@Mizmazzle definately feels satisfying to save it from near death.

My thumb however is quite sore.....

I think as I learn more I am going to have to invest in a few tools - finger protection is first on the list

[GraemeE]

Got my next project lined up - just need to find an old pair of of wrangler jeans to cannibalize so I can match the broken twill

@GraemeE worked his magic on these two hoodies! Can’t wait to wear these more!
