YoungLady had a sorrow. Her DearJacket had small problems. Despite it looks quite worn inside by the sleeves it still looks like brand new when She puts it on.
That's why I fix it. She loves Her jacket and after fixing there is no any reason to throw it away yet.
I have been fixing clothes before. There's Fix The Lining -tutorial where you can see this done in other cloth, part and material.
I have many other tutorials in MyBlog for you. Just view the web version to see the labels on right, click "tutorial" (they all are in alphabetical order) and all the tutorials appear in chronological order.
Just to mention few small, easy and simple tutorials for fixing the clothes there is one for the zipper of pants. There are also one for the school bags' most common problem. I must tell you that this school bag which I fixed on September 2016 is still in use. It is going to be broken on this very moment at its bottom part but that is all right. Schools are out after a week and YoungLady needs a bigger school bag for the next term.
Fixing up your old clothes and other stuff is not what poor people do and it should not be ashamed of. No, not at all. It is something environmentally educated people do.
Re-using, up-cycling, re-cycling or how ever you call it... it saves the nature sources a lot. Recycling your waste is very important but more important is to prevent the waste to be born, meaning that for example in this case no production of a new jacket was not needed so it saved a lot of nature resources in the whole cloth producing process and we reduced pollution in that way. You don't think it so often but cloth production actually begins from the cotton fields and oil drilling. Unfortunately.
The planet earth is far too beautiful to be wasted!
