A very slow work in progress. Looks like shit now but it will get better. An absolute pain in the ass to sew as I'm using butchers twine to sew the patches on. So I'll get a bunch done and then it will sit for several months.
Started out as a regular blue vest. Emptied several cans of the cheapest black spray paint I could find on it and ran it through the wash. First by itself until it stopped giving off paint flakes, and then just kept it in the dryer and ran it with every load for about a month.
