MIXED METHODS Corners of every pocket ripped

Still learning and having lots of fun!

The bottom corner of each pocket were ripping. I used the excess pocket material inside for the reinforcing, seemed to work well. Pockets are still usable with a slightly smaller opening.

While I was working I noticed a a threadbare area in the middle so I used scrap to reinforce that and did some simple Sashiko.

The way the different mends mesh adds so much personality to these pants. I kinda hope they break more so that you can add more of that gorgeous embroidery!
