I created this patch by ironing interfacing onto the back of a rectangle of scrap fabric, then hand-painting my design onto it. The design itself has been around for a couple of years now, stemming from a photograph that I took when researching for a project about machinery. The original photograph is shown beneath the patch image. To achieve the design that I ended up with, I traced over the photograph, focusing on the shadow areas creating a stylised final image.
The patch really needs sealing around the edges, perhaps with binding, or an overlock.
