You can use both: patches to distribute proposed changes, bundles to
distribute the integrated (and presumably controlled) branches after
changes are accepted. Of course, you can use a bundle to distribute a
proposed change as well (as a topic branch), you have to decide for
yourselves what works best. Patches are great for distributed review
over a mailing list, but if only a couple of you and no mailing list
that advantage diminishes.
