Castaways

Every year, I get to design a stitched patch for one of our annual meetings (not one I get to go to, however). Pretty cool, huh? Not really. Stitched designs=simple. Simple=boring. The following are two designs that I did but could not use due to their complexity (the patch is only about 1 1/2 inches wide).

Clever, huh? I designed this one from scratch, so I'm pretty happy with it. Stitching, however, can't handle things on a tilt. I should have remembered this before investing all that time into it.

This one's okay and I'll probably use a varient on it. The A's and the wavy lines in the background would basically turn to mush under the stitching needle, though.

sweet... too bad you can't do a giant patch. I especially like the first one.
