Fixing baby stuff with thermal stickers

No matter how neat your child is and no matter how hard he tries, small troubles certainly happen in the process of wearing things: either the stain on your favorite chocolate t-shirt will remain, or the trousers will tear. Do not scold children for such minor troubles.

If desired, these things can be put in order without much effort. There are various options on how to fix such a thing:

• The option of suturing torn elements is suitable when there is a certain supply of fabric for strength. This option is good when the hole turned out at the seam - it was sewn up, and there are no problems.

Important! In order for the seam to hold and not diverge, approximately 3-5 mm of “spare” fabric is needed.

• In the case when a hole is formed far from the seam in a prominent place, it is better to eliminate it by gluing it on both sides.

Important! You need to repair a thing as soon as a hole appears, until the edges are frayed.

How to stick thermal sticker on clothes to patch a hole?

When the hole is “fresh”, there should not be a problem with its elimination. Especially if the gap occurred along the jacket fabric and the lining and insulation remained intact. In this case, only the top layer of fabric needs to be repaired from the front side:

• You will need thermal sticker and a piece of thin non-woven. These elements should be at least a centimeter larger on each side in area than a hole.
• Inside, gently lay the non-woven through the torn facial fabric of the product.

Important! Flizelin must be put with the adhesive layer up, that is, from the inside to the torn fabric itself.

• You can do without thermal stickers. It is enough to glue the inside of the hole with non-woven material. In this case, the edges should be carefully aligned so that the interlining is not visible. Better yet, choose a non-woven fabric for the color of the product.
• In addition to attaching a sticker to a problem place, you can stick the same decor, for example, on the pocket of a jacket. It will turn out as a factory decoration.

Important! If you just sewed a hole, it is unlikely that your thing would have remained the same presentable appearance.
