I've had a few little projects lately that just don't seem enough for a post by themselves. So here are a bunch of little things in one post!
I put some patches in some jeans for my daughter.

This pair had the smallest hole |

I used pink thread to sew the patch in, to match the contrast stitching on the pants. |

This pair was the worst. Giant hole in the left knee, and long narrow thin spot in the right knee. |

Used dark blue thread to tack the patch on. |

Also used the dark blue thread to reinforce the thin spot on the other knee. |

Added a heart shaped patch to the knee of these jeans. |
Then I tackled a few things for myself. Mainly, removing the ruffles from this tank top.

I disliked the ruffles around the neckline. |

I like it much better now! |

I must say that the final picture on the pats made me smile. I bet she loves those jeans.
And how nice to have your top ready to wear.
Thanks for sharing.

Sometimes it takes so little to make a big change!
And the heart-shaped patch fits right in with the other decoration on the jeans - good idea.
