One day on the way to catch the bus to work I slipped on ice and tore a hole in my good scrub pants and skinned my knee up really good. Had to go home and change and clean up (made it to work on time PTL). I could not throw a good pair of scrubs out with only a hole in the knee. Sew, I finally stitched up a design over the hole with tear away on the back and wss on the top. What do you think? It has 14,602 stitches and came from www.amazingembroiderydesigns.com

I should think it will be a good conversation piece...and you get to wear the scrub pants for a while longer... *4U joanie

Fabulous idea. I had a stitching boo-boo where the hem came up and got caught in my pattern. Cut it away and was left with a lovely "C" hole. Selected a "pocket topper" design since it had a flat bottom, and presto... the hole was gone!

Sorry about your accident. I am in Queensland australia and would have to pay a lot of money to go somewhere I could fall on ice. I am wondering - are scrub pants different to scrubs as are worn in hospitals?
1 comment
Thank you. These are the same as I work with seniors. These scrub pants vary only in how many pockets etc they may have.... Same thing I do believe. *4U2 ><>
