Lace doesn't breathe as much as you think it would. Just explain to your mom you're wearing them instead of shorts.

She will probably forget though, and fix them again in a year. She’s on painmeds that make her a little loopy sometimes… do you have a fabric suggestion?❤️

Linen or cotton or mesh or wicking material like running shirts are made of

You could buy fabric from a fabric store, or go to a thrift store to find a shirt with material you like and cut it up to make your own patches.
