Utility titches and practical sewing Darning with the elastic stitch D Darning with the elastic stitch is especially suitable for repairing damaged areas. • Sew over the damaged area in rows un til it is well covered. Take care to ensure that the rows overlap. WW* Repairing tears On tears, frayed edges or small holes it is useful to lay a piece of fabric under the reverse side of the fabric. The under laid fabric reinforces the workpiece and ensures you a perfect repair. • Lay a piece of fabric underneath the material. It must always be a little larger than the damaged area. • Sew over the damaged area in accord ance with the size of the tear. • Trim the underlaid piece of fabric back to the seam.
