I find its harder to use pre-made patches cause you have to attach them to
backing and get them lined up just right to sew them.
For all orders of 50 or more I sent the to www.patchsupply.com
(http://www.patchsupply.com) and have them done overseas. They take 4-6 weeks
but you can pay extra for rush in 2-4 weeks and the quality is great and the
prices excellent. I do a 5" patch with 16k stitches through them for around
$2.50 each at 100 qty. You can send them any digitized file or artwork and get
a quote and digitizing on 50 or more is free up to a certain size.
If I am doing small numbers then I get patch material and just sew the patches
directly on to the material using the largest hoop thats appropriate and put as
many in one hooping as possible. I do a walk stitch in the shape I want the
border and make sure to space them around 1/4" apart to make space to merrow
them. I then send the material up to Andrew at Salem Emblem Shop and have them
merrow them for around $.50-.75 each and it cost me around $10 shipping both
ways. If I am just doing 1-5 I have a friend locally that has a serger serge
the edge which is similar to merrowing but not quite as nice but more cost
effective on small orders.
