help with fabric repair!

Post by Zobu »

:shock:
I've just got near the end of a lengthy project I've been working on and decided I didn't like the placement of a few things so I un stitched them

However...
I now have larger holes in the aida fabric so you can still see where the things were.

Is there any way to repair this so the holes go back to their original size?!

If you just give it a quick wash the holes will readjust themselve to their normal size and you will not notice them at all.
If you are looking for some one to help change you, look in the mirror
