      @jimmy:

      D97 get that fixed or it will just keep fray away.

      Adam any needle will do as long as it's easy to work with. Thread is more important.

      When I am blanket-stitching the buttonhole, is there anything I need to do to secure the old thread to prevent it from continuing to unravel after the repair?

      From what I learned online, I was just going to begin the repair stitch within what's left of the original seam, and work my way around the buttonhole.  Will this essentially "knot" the original thread?

      Yep you will basically incase the old thread under the new. There is another type of stitch especially for button holes but its a little harder and not common so won't find too much on line. I'll post it over the repair thread to night

              On Youtube select share then show options then select the long link then paste it over here.

                  this worked for me:
                  just post the url from the adress bar in a message

                    There are 2 methods that work for me.

                    1. If the video is on YouTube, just view the video and copy the URL in the address bar into the body test of the post.
                    2. Upload the video to Photobucket and copy the img code into the body of the post

                        Has anyone been in contact with DC4 lately? I have sent them two jeans to hem two weeks ago and I still haven’t got them back. They don’t answer my e-mails and their phone seems to be busy the whole time.

                                  when things settle down a bit at the castle can a controlled experiment be done on some Iron Heart patches comparing the effects of mustang paste, obenaufs lp,  & obenaufs - lo.  i know from personal use that the obenaufs lp cause the leather to get an almost reddish/orange hue to it.  what does the obenaufs lp & the mustang paste do?

                                  that's all for the moment  😠
