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.

Made some progress latching this jacket up

[mentalmaggot]

Unbelievably excited to get these onto my jacket

[mentalmaggot]

Relined an interior pocket of my jacket! The white fabric was what it was made of before and to be honest I hated how the material felt so it had to go

Found a pair of pants with some linocut designs I loved from a small business still on the tag. The pants were made of terribly thin material and I knew my absolute dumptruck wouldn't fit into them. Cut the designs out and turned it into a back patch for this denim jacket! Made the little leaf one myself and am making more plant ones with the spare fabric.

Oh also the little dots on the top right is my cat's pawprint. She only cooperated partially and once but it's still cute

Made a Fallout pin from the Fallout 3 xbox 360 game manual art

First patch is on which is exciting, going to put more on later!!

Finally actually acquired proper fabric paint for my patches instead of using watered down dollar store acrylic. Apparently using something made for what you're using it for is easier-- that's insane. Went over my shorts' patches again, too. Will certainly make more!!

Yet another project started. Surely it will be finished in a timely manner with nothing going wrong! :]

Patch by Trashmerch, towing jacket courtesy of the thrift

Added some shit on the sides and made the stitching red with sharpie :]

Been having a great time styling the hoodie I patched. Added an antler charm to one of the safety pins. Tried to add spikes to the hoodie line but it usually ends up stretching and falling out so nevermind :(

[mentalmaggot]

Found an exact copy of a shirt I have and love but one size bigger and newer, so I decided to add the graphic to this comfy sweater I got from the thrift store. huge fan of how it turned out and think I'm gonna keep adding to it with thick stitching to basically make a comfy version of my first patch jacket I made.

Now I'm on the hunt for something to cut up for the back!

Hugely pleased with how this dye job came out. I loved these pants but never wore them because they were a bright pastel blueish green. I used the leftover dye from another recent project plus what was left in the bottle from my black rit dye for this. I showed my boyfriend and he thought I bought completely new pants. Genuinely never been so pleased with a dye before

I like how you have like a bunch of buttons all over that one section of your jacket. Can I steal that?

Absolutely!! I'm glad you like it!
