How to Fix Clothes Using Applique

[amberskyfire]

Do you have a piece of clothing with a small hole in it? Perhaps you've accidentally ruined it with a small stain that won't come out. The answer? Applique!

Applique is a sewing craft in which patches of fabric are quickly and easily sewn onto another piece of fabric in order to create a design. You can create something simple in just a few minutes

My wedding dress was my aunt's, with the bodice redone to fit ... but there were these pesky tiny holes in the skirt, here and there. I took a remnant of pretty sold-by-the-yard lace, carefully cut apart the paisley-like-shaped motifs, and sewed them onto the skirt. They appeared randomly scattered -- only I knew how I picked where to put them! ;) (The leftover motifs were glued onto my shoes, which were just plain, white canvas shoes. No one could see my feet under the dress, anyway.)
