Falling apart and mended is probably about as authentic as anything ever could be. Small stitches, pulled tightly, and tied well at the end of the thread will do a better job than long, loose stitches. If your material tends to fray, then sew a whipstitch or blanket stitch around the raw edge of the fabric. That generally will reduce that self-destruction problem.
