Tip 1: Iron-on patches, a quick and reliable solution
If you had to choose the fastest method, this is undoubtedly the best. An iron-on patch is a small piece of fabric with an adhesive surface that can be attached in a few seconds using the heat of an iron.
It is particularly appreciated because it saves thin layers for precise sewing, but also thicker materials that need good support.
How do you do this?
Clean the area around the hole: a clean cloth will stick better.
Place the patch on the inside of the garment.
Iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and then iron firmly.
Let it cool before putting on the jacket.
The result is solid, fast and often invisible if you choose the right patch.
Tip 2: Hand sewing is perfect for small holes.
Do you like precision work? Then this method is for you. For holes that are only a few millimeters in size, a tight stitch is enough.
Steps:
Shade change.
Carefully sew the edges of the fabric together with a thin needle and suitable thread.
Make small, regular stitches and tie the thread discreetly.
This technique is very suitable for making jackets made of cotton, polyester or fine wool.
