Some of my NASA patches. I got the Hubble one at Kennedy Space Center when I went out to see the launch of Space Shuttle Atlantis in May (STS-132). Mike took me to the Astronaut Hall of Fame and they had the pictures of all the men and women who had been up into space for NASA and all the various patches that they had to their names. I can't remember who had it, but I saw the Hubble patch there on the wall and for some reason I said that I liked it and hoped they had it in the shop at KSC. Which they did. (Not sure why I liked it – I think it's because of the simplicity of it and the colours. It also features NASA's 'worm' logo, which didn't do the rounds for long, and I'm not a big fan of it, but in this patch it goes quite well for some reason.)
It's very hard to walk out of the shop at Kennedy Space Center without wanting to buy practically everything they have on the shelves. 2009 marked 40 years since the Apollo moon landings and I remember picking up a commemorative set of pins for Mike whilst we were there and it had a pretty enamel pin of the insignia for Apollo 11. It's probably one of my favourites.
The Space Store at KSC has an online shop too, which is bad, because every now and again I go on there and peruse what stuff I want. Like the patches. The only reason I took a picture of these patches is because I've decided I wanted to give my new winter coat its own marking and I figured (from all the commuting I do) that there aren't that many people travelling around with NASA patches on their coats. It's just a case of what patch I want to put on my coat (from the few that I have here at home – and the many I could possibly buy on t'Internets).
Pictures from our usual visit to the pumpkin patch around this time every year. We always have a good time. This year was no exception.

I cut the rot out, then made the hole rectangular. The patch is made of 3/8" plywood. It extends about an inch down between the chine guards (had to hammer it in place) and it has thickened epoxy all around. A larger back block made from 1/4" wood is inside the boat, and this patch is currently screwed to it. After everything cures, I will remove the screws and fill the holes with epoxy.

Ancient Aliens Patches is a small project to create a limited collection of badges inspired by supposed original Mayan archeological finds. I love ancestral cultures, as the Mayan, and science fiction books and films, so this Ancient Aliens Patches are the perfect mix of both.
Sometimes I feel like I don't belong on this planet. Actually, many times and for many reasons, and I'm sure you too. It’s not just a question of being different but you really are, each of us is unique. Each one in its own way is special. So I decided to design and produce these identificative patches, thinking about all those people who sometimes feel out of place, that they are not like the others and hope someday to return to their true home, with their own.
I believe we are not alone in the universe, so I will be waiting for my friends from the stars to come and pick me up soon or late.

Last week had a chance to meet Jill Badanes editor of NorthPotomac/Darnestown Patch at Bageltowne in the Traville Gateway center in Rockville. I am amazed at the speed at which North Potomac Patch updates local news and for a commmunity of about 20k residents (as the last census said) Patch is a great place to look at local news.
Jill also interviewed me for her new video series Meet-your neighbor Interview which you can find here aol.it/dHsZ8a
These nine patches will be the centers for my final sister's choice blocks. Seeing them together likes this makes me wonder if a scrappy nine patch quilt may be in my future.

A very big bag. The bottom fabric is propably Ploeg-fabric.
It feels and looks like it anyway. The drops-fabric I printed myself. Sold.
Union Pacific EMD GP60 UP 1004, formerly SSW 9684 still wears a "patch" paint job consisting of a UP nose shield and red over yellow cabside numberboards, nearly 20 years after the 1996 merger with the Southern Pacific added 2500+ SP, SSW and DRGW locomotives to the UP roster. This unit is still in service and has dodged the paint booth as of November 2024, due to its age, it will likely be retired in this same paint job. Partnered with a fully repainted sister GP60 here in Roseville CA USA on 25 July 2015.
