My mother and grandmother both worked in sewing factories and did quite a bit of home sewing, plus I took Home Economics in high school, so I was exposed to sewing by hand and machines. Hand repairs are no big deal. I have almost always had a sewing machine. I often tailor fit my shirts. I just did a couple a few weeks ago.
For rips and tears in jeans, I often use Goop adhesive. I have 3 or 4 pairs of jeans in circulation that have had the corners of the rear pockets glued back. I just pull the fabric back together and apply Goop on the inside. The washer and dryer don't affect the product.
