Very cool! I don't think you need any help at all, honestly. You are killing it!

If you want some inspiration for clever "visible fixes" that add a bit of fun to your fixing, my friend Eric has a vintage shop on Etsy where he makes fabulous repairs like this one: https://www.etsy.com/listing/710109983/carhartt-32-artist-embroidered-one-of-a

His Instagram is worth following. He often shows the damage, the work in process, and then the final design, so you can get an idea how he is thinking through the repair process.

Keep up the good work on your jacket! I mean, even if something doesn't work out, you just pull the threads out and try again, right? No harm done!

Thanks! I figured the same, and it felt like it'd be a lot of fun, so I felt bold enough to try.

Your buddy makes some really cool pants, by the way. :)
