Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Repairing your old clothes is a brilliant way of adding personality to your wardrobe, is good for the environment and saves money. Perfect for complete beginners, this handbook introduces a variety of mending techniques and shows you how to make unique projects with your new skills.
First, there is a guide to all the tools you’ll need, from hand-sewing needles to darning discs and mushrooms. Then, explore different methods of mending, with detailed step-by-step guides, followed by easy projects to put your skills into practice. Learn how to create vibrant patterns with darning, strengthen and embellish with sashiko-style stitching, cover stains with needle-felting and handmade patches, and much more. Throughout, you'll find advice on choosing colours, threads and materials, and how to incorporate a visible mend into the existing style of a garment or use it to give the item a complete refresh.
The 20 beautiful projects include adding needle-felted embellishments to a scarf, repairing a denim jacket with sashiko, patching a hole in fine silk fabric and adding colourful darning to a jumper.
