Make Do and Mend

I love mending clothes, I find it very therapeutic. I have a lot of sewing experience so mending is very easy for me thus I can get lost in the artistic process of it. Today I mended my daughters blue leggings. They are just cheapies from Target but I'm trying to mend more and spend less. I did get carried away after I'd finished patching the holes and added my own horse tags as I now consider them Oak Brand not Target =D

For this one I undid the leg seam, machine stitched in a large patch from an old t-shirt and then re-stitched the seam.

An older patch. 

Bum patch in pocket style to make it less ucky.
