To see others wearing patches, denotes want and misery are near.
If a young woman discovers a patch on her new dress, it indicates that she will find trouble facing her when she imagines her happiest moments are approaching near. If she tries to hide the patches, she will endeavor to keep some ugly trait in her character from her lover. If she is patching, she will assume duties for which she has no liking.
For a woman to do family patching, denotes close and loving bonds in the family, but a scarcity of means is possible.
