Perfect Patch for Torn Jeans

The boy always seems to get holes in his jeans just close enough to summer that I have no desire to buy new ones, but far enough away that I don't want him wearing jeans with holes every day.  And although I have found a TON of cute ways to patch up girls pants (like reverse applique) I never found anything good that would work for a boy, other than the old fashioned ugly patch.  But last night I saw a post on Tangled and True about this patch from Katie from Puju Parent:


A great worn look, but no crazy hole.  Almost looks like it was supposed to be there.  And so much better looking than the before:



If you are in need of this tutorial as much as I am, you can find it  HERE.

It totally looks like it was supposed to be this way. I think I'll try to do it with my jeans, but definitely going to go through that tutorial first.

Funny enough, I need to do this for my own jeans! Too bad I don't have a sewing machine. Oh well :)

I bet you can find someone to lend you a sewing machine for the project!
