What would Jason do? This is something I made for my husband. He already had a t-shirt with this on it, so I can't take credit for coming up with it. But I printed the design out on paper. Put some transfer paper (essentially carbon paper) between the "pattern" and the fabric and traced it. You can trace it with a pen or if you don't want marks on the original you can trace it with something pointy, I used a knitting needle. Then it's all just simple split stitch. It was a little hard stitching though since this is on my husband's jacket, it's not really thick, but the fabric is hard to get a needle through without a few pokes in your fingers.

I did sew through a thin layer of skin on my index finger while stitching this though. Even felt the thread go through my skin. Ick.
