Dragon Patch

Another patch for a pair of trousers, this time it was on stretchy fabric. I need to do some playing around with the tension on my machine as the first attempt didn't work at all and all the bobbin thread was pulled into the front. I only tricked it into working by putting the same colour bobbin thread as top thread.

I used the Gilded Heraldry - Dragon design and made it slightly smaller so it would fit on Gabe's trousers.

Here's the finished result:

Next I used a spring leaf design to create a logo for the Agrius (a hydroponics ship).

My character has somehow become a viper pilot in the BattleStar Galactica game I'm playing in, so I felt she needed an appropriate outfit. I found an excellent jacket from a charity shop and a friendly designer +Lynellen Perry with an Etsy Shop  :)

 

Another Pair of Patched Jeans

I decided to patch another pair of jeans that I ripped a hole in when I fell off my bike. This one I stitched onto a different piece of fabric which is going to fray and then handstitched it to the jeans. Hopefully it will only fray to the edge of the stitching and my handsewing will hold up. Oooh experiments...

 

Steampunked trousers

I split my jeans :( so they became steampunk jeans  :) I've put two patches on so far:

Tempus Fugit

Steampunk Butterfly

I had to add another one
