For instance I spilt some of my delicious hot choccy down the front of an ol fav tshirt. It's been through many dye pots and print experiments but the stain did not blend in with all the other chaos on the shirt. The stain had a slight resemblance to a gecko in shape so I enhanced it with needle felted merino roving and some beads n buttons etc.
I keep a stash of pretty patches, old doilies n stuff in my sewing box to cover stains, repair tears n holes or just to funk something up. My pal Sonni makes lots of these patches and I often barter with her for a little stash of them. Stitch a few up and swap amongst your mates :)
