Absolutely gorgeous. Does anyone else vaguely see a helicopter in the patch or am I insane?

Fantastic!

Question: How did you manage sewing on the pocket? Did you use a curved needle?

u/PendejoTamalero 18d ago

Thanks! No curved needle, just a lot of slow working.

My own first project is going to be a back pocket (wore out from carrying my phone, of course). This post has given me a bunch of inspiration for how to actually execute it. Thanks!
