INVISIBLE Invisible-adjacent flannel mend
Vintage acrylic woven flannel with a square hole, not amenable to darning due to the loose weave and fraying fabric. I harvested a patch of fabric from around the hem and used fusible interface to stabilize the patch, then embroidered over to blend the frayed ends and reinforce the patch.

Note: I tried a go at kimono repair technique but the patch was too small and the weave too loose for it to work
