I think I might need to steal that Sisters of Mercy patch lol ❤️ I love finding people around my age that likes the same music as me!

[@MCRkaruma]

Love your patches! I got inspired by you and painted some myself :)

[@RattusRattus]

Wahoo! That’s so cool! Hope you had fun 🥰❤️

[@MCRkaruma]

@@RattusRattus I did! :)

[@rsaunders]

I was just thinking about making some new patches for my shorts! This video will be very helpful ^^

[@RattusRattus]

Yay!!! Good luck and enjoy 🥰❤️☺️

[@hi-ci4tl]

Another way Is you use normal paper and glue it to the fabric, tho u may have glue residue if you use too much, it's usually how I do it :)

[@RattusRattus]

Cool, thanks for the tip!! 🥰

[@megandoesmusic5593]

Oh my gosh thank you so much :) I was wondering how to do this with normal paper because I don't have any vinyl or freezer paper

[@invinciblesummer13]

aw man I’m so sorry you got sick, I got the vid from work at the beginning of this year and it was so garbage :( and these patches look so good!! thank you for making this tutorial, I’m definitely gonna give it a go this summer

[@MplsRosco]

When using the adhesive vinyl, you can also get transfer film (essentially a big roll of clear tape) to move the stencil over to your cloth and then you don't have to add bridges only to remove them later.

[@lucikens666]

I've done stencils a lot . I love using this cutter device. It's like cricut but has a name I can't spell xD

[@RattusRattus]

Oh cool! My boyfriend was thinking of buying a cricut or something similar! I bet you get such clean lines :o ❤️

[@lucikens666]

@@RattusRattus yes, i should show you on instagram maybe? (i usualy throw the templates away because i use a masking type film.) also i tried the patches idea today and ended up painting on my old Jeans i dont wear oftern :)

[@samantha_hill_123]

Omg i have one i should totally use it for that stop

[@InThisEssayIWill...]

Oh no!! I'm so sorry you got the Rona! Love you!

Another awesome video. Your jacket patches are great! Rocky Horror represent! Sorry you got hit with Covid. Hopefully it's not too bad and you feel better soon.

[@tvbra1nr0t]

Aaa I hope you feel better soon!!! That sucks that you got sick :( although I was binging your vlogs the past few days and I love them so much :D

[@ketchakik]

I love this. I’m wanting to make a battle vest of local bands but I don’t think any of them have patches so…stencils is my best option

[@RattusRattus]

Hell yeah for supporting local!!! I hope the stenciling goes well ❤️

I really need to find that vinyl paper. In have no idea what it could be named in Germany.

[@hermiethewormie6576]

can you use any other kind of paper?

how tf did you do your hair in your "Easy Alt, Punk and Goth DIY Fashion Ideas and Tips! Plus Sewing Tutorial!" vid from around year ago? 🙃 does your hair just naturally look that cool? i need a cute/hot haircut for when i transition that can hide my shitty hairline and it looks beautiful

I have a video where I explain how I style my hair n stuff :-) it’s kinda old but the routine is the same ! Hope it helps ❤️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXitaptmZ5VpY5Y thanks for the nice comment!

Wait why does it cut off at the end? Or is that just me? 🥺

[@kaylzpretz4107]

The same happens for me 👀

[@kincendium411]

im fairly certain she just folds the edges of the patch backwards and irons them down so it creates a nice crisp edge that wont fray, rather than the raw edge :)
