jacket update 2022

(possibly the second this yr. i cant remember)

details and closeups under the cut, glow in the dark letters in the rb

some of this miiight be repetetitive bc i cant find any of my prev jacket updates lol

left side:

GOT A DISCO ELYSIUM PATCH BABES. i unfortunately completely forgot the etsy of the artist i got it from but if i find it ill add the link. also finally got a system of a down patch and my mechanisms patch has moved once again (yes i got that at dttm yes you should be jealous)

now this bit im not the proudest of bc lowkey i have not seen the x files and aside from against me! i dont really listen to any of these bands anymore but i dont yet have any new patches to fill the space so. theyre staying for now. also i resewed everything with red thread for funsies. the against me one is handmade and its falling the fuck apart

from top to bottom the pins are for the following protests: free szfe (i know its been 2 yrs. im mourning), the abortion march and budapest pride. nicholas continues to be my son who i took in the divorce, although i had to replace his string. below him is a dead kennedys patch some guy gave me at a gig thanks bro

right side:

a friend gifted me an mcr patch, much preciated babe, i finally have something on my right shoulder lol. the skull patch i got bc it says skull no bones and thats very funny to me 💗 my take it easy pride patch got some friends in the form of some mcr pins and an alestorm pin i found on the ground of the pit

i have 2 pins from maki yamazaki, the gear logo one and the exhumed and unplugged one but thats so fucking dark u cant really read it. i love maki but its kind of a shit pin. the @/wizardisananimal pin i got from @vakarcs thanks babe mwah and the frog was made by me when i didnt know how to embroider yet

another green day patch from when they were the only band you could get merch for. the ones below the biohazard symbol and the rose are from a local artist i got them at szia. the guns n roses one is to honor my mum i dont actually like them and the ghost one was a miraculous find

miscellancous:

i got spikes baby!! the big ones were a gift from my friend petra, the small ones were a fortune at rockpince. seriously. how much can you ask for a handful of metal

updated the sleeves as well! the cat is bc i tore a hole in it and that was the only patch my grandma had on hand, but i kinda vibe w it!! the pompoms are from another project and i didnt wanna throw them out, they usually fall behind the folded up sleeve so theyre my cute little secret

Oh how far my jacket has come. The image on the furthest right is the most recent and up to date and it’s still evolving even now (I just hope it’s wearable by the time pride comes around)

Since the last update I’ve finished sewing more details and finished the jacket collar which has a small piece sewn to it that allows for a hood salvaged from an old hoodie jacket of mine to be attached and removed at any point.

I also painted around the bottom of the jacket in rainbow that fades in a loop, one colour into the next.

The last image in this set is the back of the jacket. Which has a flannel patch saying “REVOLUTION” painted onto it (for now...) with emphasis on the word love written backwards on the patch for emphasis on the word.

If more descriptions of he details/ additional photos to show what I’m speaking of are needed, let me know and I’d be more than happy to show/tell more about it.

Since I've been sick I've added to my jacket over the last few days (in between achy and exhaustion spouts)

I've got one sleeve almost all done now! (Its only been... what... 2 years? XD)

This is still the most random project since everything is being done on a whim and as a 'huh, that'd be cool'. There is no solid design that I'm aiming for. There's no plan other than ones made along the way (like - one side for travels and the other for fandoms and things I like)

Stitched on 6 more patches. Added some shell medallions on the right pocket flap as well as an old anklet. Moved pins around (done that several times now), added a couple new ones. Drew some more with sharpie (im really liking my plant doodles). Redid the black quote (other one rubbed off). (Don't know how i feel about the light pink one so I might take it off but... I'll leave it for now)

I have some more patches, just don't know where to put them yet.

Need to redo the back, but I've misplaced my fabric paint, so thats later.

I think I'm going to get some more patches for 'places I've been but don't have patches for bc I wasn't collecting them at the time'
