Customising childrens clothes

[jenk1]

does anyone do this?
ive been thinking of doing it for a while but wouldnt know where to start lol!

I do it with both dd and my clothes, it started with a dress that she loved that was two short so i added a Lace trim to it. Then she had a tiny tots disco so I embroidered some jeans for her.

I now add embelishment and later stuff all the time, quicker result than making something from scratch and as satisfying.

only just remembered i,d asked this question

Thanks TSAP, does anyone else have a go at customising clothes?

have sewn badges/motifs etc over stains on favourite tops, embroidered jeans to cover a patch where I'd burnt a hole in them, also used ribbon to cover marks where hems of dresses, jeans etc have been let down... so functional embellishment rather than decorative!
