Ides’ has beautifully illustrated many ways to fix and sew garments from sewing on a button to hemming a dress without the need of high priced tailors. The time and money saved by learning her simple mending fixes can be rewarding. Instead of throwing away a garment or leaving it hang in your closet, you can spruce it up or repair it easily.
