Mend It Better
The patch isn't hidden. The patch is the best part of the jeans now.
Singer's rule: waste nothing, mend everything, and make it better than you found it. A repair doesn't have to be a secret — done well, it's something to be proud of, not something to hide.
Color in Singer, her rhinestone button, and the patched jeans. What color would you stitch the patch if it were yours?
About Vionnet Singer
The rhinestone button on her apron isn't decoration — it's a small, deliberate act of defiance. She's never believed doing something with real care and doing it with a little flash have to be opposites, and nobody's talked her out of that button yet. The same tomato pincushion has been on her worktable since 1987.
