Custom Space Patches for holes in Jeans

I wanted to do something unique to cover the holes in my sons jeans. At the time, he was basically obsessed with space. This is what I came up with:
You could make any kind of patches. Start with a drawing or clip art.

Then cut out layers for each of the shapes. You can use different materials. Just make sure that it is a heavy enough weight.

Sew each layer. Start with the top and add until the patch is finished.

Finally, add the patch to the jeans. I like to use a zigzag stitch for this part.

In the end, you will have a happy kid instead of a ragamuffin.
