Designed and made a Pokémon Mystery Dungeon linocut/blockprint! Needs some touching up, but not a bad start. Feel free to make your own; mirror the PNG image, inverse colors, print, and transfer:

Mirrored and printed the design on tattoo transfer paper, then transferred design to a linoleum sheet with a thin layer of water-based lube. Filled in missing spots with permanent marker, then dremeled most of the details and carved the rest by hand:

whatever. go, my it devours! pants.

pictures of individual patches below cut, plus silly rambles !!

so i thrifted these pants for theatre, cause the only tech black pants i had was a skirt, and then literally the day after i got them i cut a hole into the knee while cutting yarn. i have never cut a hole into my clothes before, despite the fact i crochet all the time and therefore use sharp small scissors all the time,,, anyway. i decided to put a centipede patch over the hole rather than just sew it up, cause i thought it’d be a quick fun project (famous last words). this took me So Long. it also was not supposed to Be an it devours! project, it just sort of. became that.

i was not ORIGINALLY going to do it in patchwork, then while raiding my mom’s fabric stash, i saw that she had lots of interesting patterns and textures. just cutting (and fray proofing! most of these pieces needed to be fray proofed, and i only had old clear nail polish on hand) took FOREVER. and then the legs,,,, i spent i don’t even know how long on the legs. there were three days at LEAST where that was pretty much the only thing i did. if i ever have to do a chain stitch again,,,, i also freehanded all of them. fun!!!!

i did the sun all in one night, and tbh the split stitches were probably the most fun thing i did on this project^_^

Hopefully will be able to take better photos soon but added a few more patches and bits!

Please ignore the dog hair that’s just from my dogs. Atleast it fits the theme

These used to be my paint pants but I reintroduced them into my wardrobe by adding a patch onto the leg. The patch is green denim and says LADY BUG around a jar of 3 lady bugs.
