Repair Services.

No matter how much you take care of your garments, they are there to be worn, so accidents can always happen. A minor fix can create a new life for your garment and extend its lifetime. If you don’t have the time to repair something yourself I offer a repair service. If you buy a product on the webshop there will be a repair service included, but I will also offer repairs for the textiles you already own.

If you don’t see an item on this list, it does not mean that it can’t be done. Have questions? Email me with questions at aliciaminnaard.info@gmail.com

  • Darning

    Suitable for woven and knits. Like jeans, jackets, shirts, dresses, skirts, and pants, but also knits like T-shirts, sweaters, hoodies etc.

    Decorative, but durable repair. A technique where weaving is created over the rip on woven fabrics or in the hole on woven and knitted fabrics. Very beautiful repair but more time-consuming and therefore more costly.

    Smaller than a quarter              €35
    Larger than a quarter                €45+
    Bigger holes                              €55+

  • Swiss Darning

    Suitable for sweaters, pullovers, cardigans etc.

    Decorative, but durable repair. A technique where the knit is knitted back with a different yarn and therefore closes the rip. Suitable for chunkier knits. With this technique, the stretch stays in the fabric compared to the normal darning repair.

    Larger than a quarter                €45+
    Bigger holes                              €55+

  • Patch repair by hand

    Suitable for woven textiles and garments like jeans, jackets, shirts, dresses, skirts, and pants. Not for knits

    Durable repair, but not recommended for places with a lot of friction. Only for small rips and stain coverups. The patch can be done in a shape or a simple square. This repair is also nice to cover stains and can also be done in a patchwork way, with multiple patches over each other. 

    hole (smaller than a quarter)              €25
    hole (larger than a quarter)                €35+

  • Sashiko

    Suitable for woven textiles and garments. Like jeans, jackets, shirts, dresses, skirts and pants. Not suitable for knits.

    Durable repair, done by hand with a running stitch, can be done with white thread for the traditional Japanese look, but can also be done in the same colour as the textiles for a less visible look.

  • Patch repair by machine

    Good for woven textiles and garments like jeans, jackets, shirts, dresses, skirts and pants. Not for knits.

    Durable repair done by machine, but not recommended for places with a lot of friction. A piece of fabric that makes the rip or hole more durable by replacing or covering the worn-out area. The patch can be done in a shape or a simple square. This repair is also nice to cover stains and can also be done in a print way where the patches become a print on the garment. 


    Square patching                             €20+
    Decorative patching                     €40+

  • Stitch repair by machine

    Suitable for woven textiles and garments like jeans, jackets, shirts, dresses, skirts, and pants. Not for knits

    A cheap option, as it is a quick and easy fix by machine. Preferably not done in places where a lot of friction or movement is happening, as the fabric can become a bit thicker. For crotch and knee repairs I recommend the Sashiko repair or Darning.

    hole (smaller than a quarter)              €15
    hole (larger than a quarter)                €20+
