Instead of trying to make the damage invisible, this style lets you put your own creative spin on clothing! Weaves, embroidery, and color blocks can all be tools used in visible mending. This is my specialty. Visible mending is more than just a mend - it's art! If you choose to get a visible mend, you can tell me excactly what you want on the Contact Me form and I will try my best to acheive your vision! Make sure to check out the Portfolio page for some examples.
Whether you want a stain covered, a patch embellished, or simply a cool accent on your clothing, embroidery can be beautiful and fun! You can choose a geometric design, abstract pattern, or a small object or flower for me to embroider on your garment! Make sure to check out Portfolio to see some examples.
A knit fix is when you take yarn and weave it through a knitted surface to repair a place where the knitting has become weak or has torn. Knit fixes can be fun and colorful, or they can blend in. You can choose any color, or selection of colors, for me to repair with. Make sure to check out Portfolio to see examples!
Upcycling is the process of taking something old and making it into something new with a different purpose! I do lots of clothing upcycles for myself and wil do upcycles by comission for others. Please check out my portfolio to learn more and see my past upcycles!
I only take local orders (Midcoast Maine) or pre-arranged exceptions.
All orders are subject to confirmation based on my availability.
These are handmade artistic mends and upcycles and while I do the best I can to meet your preferences the finished product may vary.
Payment is due upon completion of mend unless prior arrangements have been made.
Completion timeline will vary based on my availability.
