There’s no doubting that kids lead a rough and tumble
lifestyle. Tearing through shrubbery and falling down rabbit holes just goes
with the territory, but constantly replacing torn and worn-out clothing can
take its toll on your bank balance. That is why we recommend taking the
traditional route – patch wherever and whenever necessary.
Creative
patching is a great way to spice up old clothes and generate interest in
forgotten garments. Try adding teddy bears and butterflies or spiders and
soccer balls to missing knees and elbows. Even a simple zigzag stitch can liven
things up. Just make sure that that patch is slightly larger than the worn out
section – at least 2.5cm all round should do the trick.
If you
want to nip the problem in the bud before it starts, then opt for reinforced
knees and elbows (we’re talking about the clothes here and not your kids). When
putting together a new pair of pants consider working some knee patches into
the design. Whether hidden on the inside or boldly displayed on the outside,
these will help prolong the life of your child’s wardrobe and your wallet.
We have a
great variety of vibrant fabrics in stock that are perfect for children’s
clothing. Give us a call on our Golden Number 0861 322 839 | 0861 FAB TEX to find out more or visit us in-store today.
