Gotta stitch a uniform back together in time for work today. Where's a quick emergency guide for guys who don't sew?

Use a stapler.

Oh yeah, it's actually a small seam that meets the pocket and goes down the leg. That's what I need to sew back together...

stapler isn't a bad idea for a coverup

what stuff have you got to use?

sewing: not as easy as it looks

Turn the garment inside out.
Then look at teh other seems. You can basically pin the item together in the proper way to hold the fabric together while you sew. Then neatly whip stich the area. A whip stitch is basically a spiral. Like if it is the seem of a pants leg, you have them inside out, then you stitch through the seem, come back over the top and back through again just net to where you started. If the pants were invisible and you could see the thread, you could tell it woudl look like a long thin spiral along the length of the seem. got it?

Dude, just use a stapler or duck tape it underneath. That should hold it for today, so you have more time to worry about it later.

They also make this stuff that you can iron on that will "glue" two pieces of fabric together. Hem Magic or Stitch Witchery or something like that. Saved my ass many a time.
