Take that, Pants!
I am a thrifty mother who fixes damaged clothes, likes to spunk up or alter plain/obnoxious clothes, and loves to sew. In an effort to be economically and environmentally minded, I make inexpensive, custom appliques and patches from reclaimed materials to revive kids' clothing that needs a little help. I also take custom orders of all sorts. Available in the Portland, OR metro area by drop-off only. Prices start at $4. Contact me at takethatpants.gmail.com :)
How it works
How it works: You get any clothes that need appliques and/or patches to me (I also do small alterations for tears on seams, etc). I'll take a look and let you know if they are good candidates for my service and get them fixed up! Prices are based on number of fabrics, etc. If you know you want a certain type of applique on my menu, I'll do that shape and choose the perfect fabric/s for you. As the fabrics are repurposed and/or vintage, each applique is unique and I can't guarantee I'll have any specific kind of fabric. If you have a color preference, let me know, but other than that, you have to trust me! See the posts below for a la carte pricing and samples/menu prices. If you have awesome clothes that need a little help that your children have outgrown, I may exchange them for credit on appliques. And I always take custom work! If you have any questions, ask! Thank you, Laura

Lovey repairs - price by need
Have you got a lovey that needs a new eye (this one did), a new nose, or a patch. Well, I can fix it!
Wings and Things - $18
Wings with lots of fairy ribbon added to the back of any shirt that you provide. These wings give you all the fairy magic a girl could need and you can still get in and out of a car seat. Plus, when your wings need a bath, the shirt just goes in a regular load in a delicates bag!
I used to be a dress - $12
Do you have a dress that is too short, but that you still love on your little girl? If she can get it comfortably around her waist, then I can turn it into a skirt!
