Min yndlingsnederdel reddet/My favourite skirt mended

Jeg har haft denne dejlige nederdel i årevis. Stoffet er slidt helt blødt, og desværre også lidt tyndtslidt.
I have had this wonderful skirt for years. The fabric is worn lovely soft, but unfortunately also worn thin.

Nu var den endnu gang gået i stoffet. Men det broderede mønstret har en fordel: Det er enkelt og lidt rustikt og hver gang der kommer rifter i nederdelen, kan jeg reparere det nærmest uden, at det kan ses bagefter.
Once again it had got a tear. But the embroidered pattern is so simple and rustic, and I can mend tears, so they are virtually unnoticeable afterwards.
Jeg tror det er tredje gang, jeg har repareret den. Og nu er der gået sport i det; jeg kommer til at blive ved med at reparere på den, så længe jeg kan.
Jeg startede med at lappe hullet med hvid sytråd.
I have mended it three times now, and will continue as long as possible – just for the sport of it.
First I mended the tear with white thread.
Derefter broderede jeg ovenpå reparationen med sort stoppegarn, som matcher den oprindelige tråd.
Then I embroidered over the mend with black cotton mending thread (which looks exactly like the original thread) to make a pattern similar to what is already on the skirt.
Der var også en plet, jeg ikke kunne få af. Den broderede jeg også henover.
There was also a stain I hadn’t been able to get off. I embroidered on top of that too.
Og nu er min yndlingsnederdel klar til endnu en runde.
And now this favourite skirt of mine is ready for another around.
