Local know-how

Lake life is hard on clothes

Denison sits right next to Lake Texoma. Denison Dam, just northwest of town, holds back the Red River to form the lake, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers runs it for flood control, power and recreation.

For a lot of families here, that means weekends on the water, at campgrounds and on the trails. It also means snagged jackets, torn knees and worn seams.

Sun, water and rough use break fabric down faster. A small tear that catches on a boat cleat or a fence tends to grow each time it is washed.

Patches take some planning too. Placement, thread color and the fabric of the jacket all affect how a patch looks and holds up. Heavy canvas and denim take patches well. Thin or stretchy fabric may need a backing so the patch lies flat and does not pucker. Nayna looks at the jacket first and then suggests the best way to attach it.

The best time to fix a rip is early, before it spreads. Nayna patches rips and tears so your favorite pieces last more seasons. She also sews on patches, whether it is a club patch, a team patch or one you picked up on a trip.

Meet Nayna

Hi, I'm Nayna. Pull up a chair.

"I patch rips and tears and sew patches onto jackets. If you have questions, just ask and I will let you know if I can do it."

I'm a wife, a mother of two and a grandmother of four. I've always loved crafting and sewing, and I've spent years doing alterations both professionally and from home.

I'm retired now, but I still sew right here from my home in Denison. When I'm not at the machine I'm with my family, loving on animals of every kind, or daydreaming about the beach.
