My thick ass thighs like to put holes in the pants I wear often so I'm adding a crotch patch so I can wear em again. Gonna make em slightly wider in the legs with the same fabric too

Black fabric came from an old turtleneck >:)

Vest is not even close to being done but I'm really enjoying the nerdier theme this one has and wanted to show off the upcyced gears of war back patch for it!! Not sewn in yet but I'm really excited for it.

With or without the red accents?

Reworked my first ever punk project with lots of new patches I made. I also made it into a vest instead of an uncomfortable jacket!! The edges of the arm holes aren't as nice as a denim jacket though. Its a sweater for lining plus my first pleather jacket from when I was a kid plus dental floss and i took a lighter too it to keep it from fraying-- so sensory hell if I don't have a shirt on. Still working on that. What I'm really unsure of is if I want to go full black and white handmade patches or add some colour with the embroidered ones.

That's awesome to hear that my purchase of the patch supported someone who does active work for indigenous people!! Her stuff is sick as fuck too :)

Excited to add the 4 new patches I made. Will update when done!!

Bit the bullet and bought a buttonmaker since I got my holiday commission. Having a fantastic time turning a cat life magazine, magic booster pack art and other shit into pins

WIP on my pants :3

Most patches are DIY, and shout out to anarchostencilism for the deny delay depose stencil

Had two shirts in the style of the bottom one on the top left. Cut out the blue design and added it to a hoodie, gonna add the pink and yellow one to the back. There are some sick designs on the arms I'm gonna add too, just a progress photo. Mushrooms are from the mangled pair of shorts that got too small for me

Made this lined paper patch for the inside of my jacket. Trying to find something funny to use it for so let me know if you've got any suggestions

Also it's a bit wonky sorry

Better look at the jacket so far

Jacket update

Baby's first stencil! Top patch is hand painted and how I usually do things.

Really liking how this is coming along. Haven't sewn in the boydyke yet and I kinda want to be able to wear this jacket to work n shit like that. Thoughts?

Battle jacket update :)

Having a great time with these shoes already

[mentalmaggot]

Got these at the thrift and just finished cleaning them. Excited to punk em up. Shitty that red laces is Nazi shit because I love the look of the laces that came with em. Guess I gotta get some new ones. Still love the shoes!

Editing this post to add that yes I am keeping the laces and yes I now know that it does not matter.
