Introduction
Elbows and knees are classic areas of wear on garments. With the right fabric patch, you can hide the damage and make your product look great again. If you don’t have the same color as the garment for your patch, a contrasting color can also create an optical highlight. You can also use the same type of repair for a tear. In this example, we’ll show you how to do it.
