Pocket Guide to Mending: Practical Techniques and Stitches (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781639811687)

The Fox pocket guide program is a collection of small booklets that consistently sell in the sew, quilt, and yarn marketplace. These limited-page booklets are reasonably priced, designed to tuck in a craft bag or purse to take along to classes or stores, and handy for quick stitching and product references.

Visible mending has become the modern girl's favorite style of hand embroidery as it doesn't just inspire creativity, it encourages repurposing and upcycling, reducing textile waste. Author Melissa Galbraith shares various stitch techniques and patterns showing readers how to repair assorted fabrics, different garments, and accessories.

Although the popularity of pocket guides isn't particularly tied to the author's visibility, Melissa Galbraith does have blog posts relating to visible mending, and is an excellent hand stitcher.
