Sewing on patches
The best way to darn larger holes is to cover the
damaged area with a piece of new material.
• Baste the piece of new material onto the
damaged area from tne right side.
• Over-stitch its edges with elastic stitch.
• Now cut back the damaged material up to the
seam on the reverse side.
TIP: In order to turn at the corners more easily. use
the 'needle down" function.

Darning tears
For tears, frayed edges or smaller holes it is easier
to place a piece of material on the underside of the
fabric. This strengthens the fabric and provides a
much better darn.
• Place a piece of material on the underside of the
fabric. The piece must always be a little bigger
than the damaged area.
• Now over-stitch the damaged area by the length
of the tear.
• Cut back the material on the underside close to
the edge.
