REPAIR
Repair a log record book pocket as follows:
1. Stitching. Using a medium-duty sewing machine, stitch and restitch with size E nylon thread that matches
the color of original stitching, when possible. When restitching the tie loops, use a ziz-zag sewing
machine and restitch with size E nylon thread that matches the color of original stitching, when possible.
Lock all straight stitching by backstitching at least ½-inch. Restitch directly over the original stitching,
following original stitch pattern as closely as possible.
