Today's Finds - Twilight Patch

We always find some patches which are good as collectibles.
Recently, I re-watched the film series "Twilight", one of my favorite films.
I seached on ebay, and found there are patches for this film. I have bought one, and will receive it soon.

My Work - Sequins Patch for Halloween

This patch is not what we always use. It is made of sequins.
I made it last year for halloween.
When ironing on this patch to the fabric, we have to do it mainly on the back, avoiding possible damages to the sequins beads.
I think this patch will also look good on costumes. Try it.... Remember to wash the finished works inside out.

My Face - like tiger?

My face......
This patch is iron-on, using household iron to stick it on any fabric which allows 150C temperature (iron-setting at cotton). The size is 2.25 inch x 2 inch. Like it? Glad if you let me know. :-)

My Work - Alien Cat for Jeans Repairs

I have a jeans which has been worn for almost 10 years. Of course, there are some wear and tear. A hole at the pocket is getting larger as time goes by. To repair it, I used a embroidered iron-on patch. It is an alien-like cat. COOL~

My Neighbor Totoro トトロ 龍貓

We always see the cartoon/ animation characters being made as a patch, for children clothes decoration or repairs, or being as a kind of collectibles for some people.

The very popular characters include Mickey, Minnie, Hello Kitty.....
I found that patches of Totoro, a lovely character of the animated film of Japan in 1988, are rare.
(Totoro translated to chinese is "龍貓").
I finally found one. I will use it later for my DIY project.

My Work - Paul Frank on the Bag

I added a Paul Frank patch on a bag today.
The patch is an iron-on one, and it only took me a few minutes to finish the work by the iron at home.
The patch becomes a good decoration to the bag, which will be a birthday gift to my niece next month. So unique and special !

My Work - Little Fish on My Old Shoes

Ha...... The old shoes are so plain that I need something to make them new.......
Two little fishes, one blue one red, were sticked on the sides. Pretty!

I finished the iron-on process carefully, as I didn't want to see my shoes burnt.
Good, the patches sticked nicely.....  :-)

My Work - Transformers logo on Old Shirt

I didn't like the logo on the shirt, so I iron-on a patch to cover it.....
It is a transformers decepticon. Is it good looking?
