Help the planet and don't throw away your torn garments or fabric items: mend them using the Free-Motion/Darning Foot! We recommend placing stabilizer and a small piece of fabric under the area you need to repair, and stitching thread that matches your fabric back and forth over the torn hole. Don't forget to rotate 90 degrees and repeat your stitching again for added durability! Get the Free-Motion/Darning Foot: http://ow.ly/QtSv50NwGPE | Singer Sewing

Principal dancer Roseanna Leney answers your questions on how to darn and what kind of thread to use. #darning #ballet #pointeshoes | Scottish Ballet
