here is an example of some visible mending; running stitches used to mend holes in jeans near the crotch with a patch.
What I want to point out is how you can see that the mend area extends far beyond the hole and encompasses the material around it.
in this photo I want to point out how the hole has been sewn up like a button hole. I think that this is an important step, otherwise the fraying fabric isnt secured as well
Thank you!
