Annette came in quite some time ago with a wool skirt that needed rescuing. There were 2 very large holes with missing fabric, as well as wearing along the hem. The best route for us to fix this was by reweaving these trouble spots by hand. After I informed her it would never look brand new from the store, she decided to go for it.

The most difficult part was recreating the different textures, but taking a little extra time made a huge difference! Now this skirt is ready to go for round 2!
