Thanks all! This prompted me to check my spam and it was in there! All sorted. Addressing a small issue where the fabric is softening before it gets worse.

First attempt at sashiko repair. Kakinohana (persimmon flower) stitch on my N&F 10th Anniversary pair.
Did not take into account just how effeminate it would end up looking when finished, but I still dig it

Cheers! The blue pen lines should wash out; just haven't washed these since patching 'em.
@DeeDee85 I'd guess something like 12 hours' work, all told. Slow stuff! Had to pull the needle through with pliers pretty often, which added a bunch of time. I imagine it'd go quite a bit quicker if both of the fabrics were thinner/softer.

Not sure if it’s the right thread, but I’ve just had these two shirts modified:

Thanks to my mom for the needlework!
They are great shirts, but both suffered from the cats eye buttons becoming undone very easily. So when I realized that IH had started using four-hole buttons on some work shirts I wrote and asked if it was possible to order replacements for the originals.
And - huge shout out to costumer support - they offered me enough to change all buttons on both shirts

Once again, great service, and thank you to IHUK and my mom!
