MIXED METHODS Patch and embroidery fun

Got the skirt for free at a clothing swap, noticed a hole in the waistband when I got home. I tried to embroider an eye over it, but it started looking like a butthole so I took the embroidery out, made the hole even worse, and patched over it. Then I noticed I poked another hole in the skirt so I had to do another patch. The result’s pretty cute though.

You start to question if the piece is even worth salvaging, but then yourealize it’s all a learning experience
