I clip this to the brim, making sure the clips are out of the way of the needle case. These will take alot of abuse, as mine are two years old and are still going. This has saved me many a hat when the design is placed low on the front. Hope this works for you as well. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
