Decorative mending

This week I used some embroidery as a mending technique.  My daughter had managed to rip her leather jacket and it has sat in the craft room for ages whilst I decided what to do for it.  I saw a link on pinterest and and thought I might as well go for it as the jacket was unwearable as it was.  Here is the actual mend
I then added some embroidery to make it look more deliberate. I've since discovered that visible mending is a thing and I'm wondering if I should have left it at the mend, but it is done now.
I just wish I had taken a photo of the rip before I did the mend as it was pretty spectacular.

Also this week I finished a little doodle stitch that I did as I had no other embroidery on the go.
