French Weaving

Reweaving is considered a specialized skill in tailoring primarily for small damaged or snag’d garments. It involves hand weaving thread strands into the garment’s damaged area, creating virtually invisible repairs. We take threads from the garment itself, usually from hidden seams / areas, and replace each broken thread, one at a time. Each worker wears magnifying glass plates while working with small needles and thread to reweave the damaged area. Stitch by stitch the reweaver replicates the garments original structure rendering the damaged area undetectable. This style of reweaving usually leaves invisible and great looking results.
