Roach, whose website Craft Leftovers has a regular readership of over 30,000, introduces a fresh spin on mending by adapting traditional techniques for today's crafty sewers.

The how-to text is accompanied by dozens of inspiring examples from Kristin's own work and that of other notable craft bloggers and artisans. Eco-conscious creatives will love the innovative solutions that use appliques, patches, brightly coloured accents, and intricate lace details.
