-
Identify the defective area and assess how large the damage is.
-
-
-
Cut away any damaged thread around the hole, to create a clean surface to repair.
-
Take care: don't cut away fabric, as this will shorten the repair.
-
Turn the edges of the hole inside, so that they are tucked inside the hole.
-
-
-
-
Pin the folded parts of the hole securely in place.
-
Prepare the sewing machine and offer up the repaired area.
-
Tip: For tips on setting up the machine take a look at this iFixit guide.
-
Depress the sewing machine foot and remove any pins in the way of the sewing route. Start sewing a straight line from one side of the hole to the other, close to the edge of the hem, and add a lock stitch at the beginning and end.
-
-
-
Finish the sewing and cut the loose thread to make a neat finish.

🛠️🏆👏 Congratulations! The repair is complete, and you're ready to go!
