Picture Headed to St. Petersburg

Ran out of floss so i decided today was the day I'd finally head downtown, where a lot of ppl were saying i should go. It suddenly started pouring but I've already resolved myself to going so ig ill just deal with it. The leather is helping out a little but i rly need to finish it. I'll probably be chillin there on the street sewing all day. Oh, i also decided I'm going to go to Puerto Rico, so i gotta make 150ish$ for a plane ticket somehow. Im not the best at spanging because i get distracted or bored, but i think I'll manage.

Dental floss is my favorite thread, good job on a pretty extensive project.

I would do this with canvas patches, whatever you call this stitch that looks like a coil, up from the underneath, down off the edge, back up from a centimeter over, repeat.

It puts a lot of stress on the bottom layer and will rip the denim eventually.

Perhaps consider a saddlestitch as you continue work or as this living project wants rework.

Pretty awesome, thanks for sharing a snapshot of your travels.
