Hello Invisible Sew friend!
Never be ashamed! We are all here to learn! I for one wished I knew how to speak spanish! : ). If you ever come back
to this page and want help with english – just let me know. I would welcome your help with spanish and I would also gain
a new sewing friend! I also want to thank the amazing lady who told you know to be ashamed of your language barrier! She’s
a special person as well. I love the energy and kindness I found on this website. I’m learning to sew too. I live in a very rural area
and it’s impossible to make new friends due to my work hours and not growing up here. I welcome the opportunity to make new sewing friends I can learn from. : ). God Bless you all!

Hi,
Thanks for the kind reply. Nice of you to encourage her.

it might be kind of weird to reply to this over a year later, but I read your comment and I just want you to know, you have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. The fact that you know two languages and you know your second language enough to write a lengthy comment is already impressive!

Sorry this has nothing to do with sewing, I just think that nobody who knows more than one language should be ashamed, haha

I am ashamed of my reduced almost null vocabulary on this subject in both English and my native language, Spanish, where this technique is called “zurcido invisible”.
It is a laborious work, for that reason it is not affordable to pay maybe more than the price of the damaged clothes. Very few tailors offer that service.

There are many kinds of invisible sewing, such search doesn’t work.
I found a Japanese video (simultaneously translated to English) showing such technique that they call: “kekatsugi sashikomi”. Searching at this time, you will quickly find a couple of videos about it.
The video doesn’t show with detail how the work is finished, only how the patch is fixed inserting (is darning the right word?) threads from the patch into the fabric around the hole with a thin needle with a thread. It is amazing.
I am sure that you will enjoy it a lot, and be motivated to experiment on how to finish it. With your skill and passion I augur success.

Hi Clare
Thanks for the kind words
