Applique mending

Applique is a great way to mend anything really and Katrine of Mending Mayhem runs through a few techniques she uses.

Reverse applique is a great way to use layers of fabrics to mend and add wonderful design features. Katrine gives us some tips to make this an easy and eye catching feature.

She also discusses using water soluble stabilisers and iron on adhesives. These are easy to use but you do need to know how your fabric will behave with these fabrics.

Katrine discusses the ways she uses these techniques to extend the life of her clothes in a way that adds to their design. Make sure you listen to all of Katrine's mending podcasts. She is dedicated to spreading the word about mending through this podcast and on her social media platforms. Each week Katrine shares mending inspirations across the mending world on Mending Mayhem.
