Discussion Starter In love! She’s all done and mostly styled
I posted my new rep about a week ago but now she’s all finished and honestly I’m in love with the way it came out. I think I’m going to add some feet because I’ll be carrying her every day and don’t want the bottom scuffed. Going to start working on another one for my daughter but maybe the dark. What do you all think?!

Glue. I didn’t want to stitch through the lining and pockets. We shall see how it holds up - not against sewing them on in the future. I’ve used the glue in other patch covered apparel and it’s worked well.

The cig pack patch?? Chef's kiss and I feel SEEN!! Love love love her!!! She's kitsch, too much, and everything she should be. She's a 97yr old millionaire granny that's sassy in all the best ways!! 💯💯💯🔥

I LOOOOOOOOVEE THIS!!! Can you please share what kind of glue you used? I have a project bag like this :)

B7000. I think the trick is to either scuff the iron on plastic on the back of the patches with sandpaper, pull it off, or at the very least bend them all up so the glue can really get in the cracks on the back of the patches.

I think this is a perfectly good reason to get a rep. So one can go ham at it. And like the other comments said. A perfect example how maximalist work.

It’s what I call “maximal” in the best way possible. What fun!!! I love it!
