    • Locate the part of buckle that needs fixing.

    • Note: if your buckle has actually broken or snapped, use a "seam ripper" tool, or small pair of scissors to carefully cut the threads holding the seam together. Then remove the defective buckle and obtain a replacement.

    • Insert the buckle in the fabric loop.

    • Check that the position is correct, and that the other half of the buckle will clip on correctly.

    • Note: It is easy to sew the clip in back-to-front - so one extra check before stitching is worthwhile!
