customized jean jacket patches + stitching for miguel

My friend Miguel asked me to embroider something on his favorite jean jacket to remind him of the Basaseachic Falls National Park outside of his hometown near Chihuaha, Mexico. I didn't want to recreate the images I found online, so I took some liberties in the design and turned it into a three-part panel of patches representing the actual falls traveling to the river beneath it. 

In addition to the three patches, I stitched his family's cattle brand onto the inside sleeve under the wrist for a subtle personal touch 

I had a ton of fun working on this, I'm excited to work on customizing more!
