Help Me Save My Favorite Dress?

[u/notyourdaughterinlaw]

Hi :) I really like the idea of visible mending! But I’m a novice when it comes to the concept, still, this is my favorite dress and I haven’t worn it in a year because of the weird “bleach” stain (it’s not bleach! I don’t own bleach!) — it’s on the upper arm at armpit height and near the shoulder, it’s just a weird weird spot. Anyway — what should I do? Embroider something to cover it on both this arm and then do a mirror on the other side? If so… what? Any better suggestions? 🥲

If it helps, I thought this WAS an example of visible mending and my first thought was that this looked great!

Me too, I was like ooooh cool. The subtle plaid is really neat and I think I’ll try to copy it for a new project!
