This listing is for a FREE CONSULTATION for VISIBLE MENDING and does not include any services or any physical or downloadable items. I’ll contact you to set up a consultation that works for both of us, whether over text message or email, or in person in the Machias, ME area. Please be prepared to provide photos of your damaged stuff, or bring your items with you if we’re meeting in person!
I’m happy to repair worn and damaged woven and knit fabric items of many kinds. I’ll work with you to assess creative mending possibilities and create a plan of action!
✔️ YES, I’LL MEND THESE:
- clothing
- soft toys
- linens + quilts*
- ??? If you have something else in need of repair, let’s talk! More unusual repair jobs have included re-covering peeling pleather headphones, adapting a pair of winter gloves for specialized use, and creating replacement pieces for incomplete board games.
❌ NO, I CAN’T TAKE ON THESE PROJECTS:
- tailoring or alterations
- wedding dresses or prom/evening/formalwear
- leather or fur
- any items containing moth eggs**
* I am able to accept some quilt repair projects but am not a textile conservator; for fragile or valuable antiques I recommend seeking out a professional trained in preserving historical textiles.
** I am not able to accept any mending projects on items showing evidence of active moth infestation. If your item contains moth eggs, it will be returned to you unrepaired. If you think you might have moths, get in touch and I will be happy to help you make sure your items are ready for mending!
