A fun book for eco-conscious parents who aren't afraid of a little extra work in order to extend the life of their kids' clothes. Children can help with these projects as well. -- Whitney Bates-Gomez, Library Journal

Kids are tough on their clothes...Fortunately, they're creative too!

Mending With Kids shows you how to make kids' torn and stained clothes wearable again using a variety of simple sewing and decorating techniques that foster kids' participation. It includes helpful tips and techniques for patching, collage (with felt and fabrics), iron-ons, stenciling, darning, embroidery, hand-painting, and much more--including templates for making your own patches and stencils!

Best of all, most of these techniques are easy enough for kids to join in and put their personal stamp on their clothes--which they absolutely love doing! And with your supervision, they'll pick up practical skills along the way.

In this book, you'll find practical ideas and advice on clothes-savers like:
