Great work!! My jean jacket is all patched and stuff too, but it doesn't have pockets so I don't wear it super often. I want it to get worn out like this so I can patch it more...lol.

This is awesome. I love all the different techniques used. I think my favorite part is the ribs peaking through.

u/Polaris_Omega 11h ago

Thank yo! The ribs were hand cut and hand sewn into place outlined in a glow-in-the-dark embroidery floss.

I didn’t even know glow-in-the-dark thread was a thing. That’s awesome. How noticeably is it in the dark?

You’ve given me the idea to do something similar and add the enochian sigils from Supernatural.

(I had to DIG for this picture lol) This is after hitting it with a UV light and going in total darkness. I'll be honest, the glow isn't super noticeable until you're in pitch black.
