I thrifted this thing years ago, absolutely one of the top 3 things in my wardrobe- I was sad when it ripped, but also excited that I got to try out visible mending :] !!
The patch I used is actually from my old favorite pair of pants- the ass wore out so thin that I couldn't wear them anymore, and I didn't think they were worth repairing. Looking at them now I totally could have, but oh well, I already took a big chunk out of them for this.
Maybe that'll be my next project 🤔
Wanted some advice from other sewers, though- do I need to worry about this patch on the inside fraying? I don't really want to have more stitching visible on the outside, but also hemming it sounds really annoying.
