patching with wundaweb
This stuff is great! I use greaseproof parchment paper to iron over the area as I to destroyed an iron once,repacing the iron cost more than the garment I was patching! It is good for hemming but in my experience it is best to keep the wundaweb closeish to the bottom of the hem as it can appear to be stiff due to the glue bond being so tight. I would nearly practice on something you dont care for to get the knack of it first. I made curtains from an old table cloth with this stuff in my student days,great stuff. You can buy elbow and knee patches from the wool section of shaws but to be honest I think they are to big so I cut them to fit the area and wunaweb it,the material is fine but durable so you don't notice it against your skin.
