To repair a straight or three-cornered
tear, position the tear under the needle
in such a way that the stitching catches
both sides of the tear. When mending a
three-cornered tear, stitch from each
end to the center. It is well to use a
piece of fabric under the tear for rein-
forcement.

Stretch fabric between embroidery hoops

back and forth with a steady rhythm to
cover darning area. When it is covered,
turn fabric 1/4 a turn and sew layer of
stitching across first layer,
If fabric is thin or badly damaged in hole
area, you may want to put a separate
piece under the hole for reinforcement,
Be sure to return pressure on presser foot
to original adjustment after darning.
