Iron-On Patch

These iron-on patches made with second-hand materials are super unique! Each one made with donated unwanted fabrics, these patches will breathe new life into any accessory! Choose small, medium or larger but ensure the patch will be larger than the cut or hole.  These patches are backed with durable iron-on adhesive with a layer of canvas in-between so they are nice and thick!  

• Small: Total patch measures Under 2"
• Medium: Total patch measures Between 2.5"- 3.5"
• Large: Total patch measures about 3.5"- 5"
• Pattern: You will receive ones at random!
• About the Maker: Every artist has tools of their trade— knitters have needles and yarn, painters have brushes and easels, stitchers have needles, thread, and fabric — and every artist will tell you the tools of their trade can be expensive, especially when you're just starting out. When you’re looking for a set of supplies to explore a new medium, figuring out what you actually need can be overwhelming and cost-prohibitive. Make & Mend was born out of a desire to change that narrative. Established in 2017 by Somerville artist Emily Tirella, Make & Mend is working to remove the financial barriers to creation by offering gently used art supplies at an accessible rate for seasoned artists and first-timers alike. Like any great work of art, our shop has moved through many forms. Make & Mend was once a brick and mortar space but in March 2020 we said good-bye to our tiny shop and we have now moved to a fully digital platform serving the makers of the Boston artist community and beyond!
