Materials used for making Patches:
- Quilting cotton with patterned designs - its a bit thin, but looks great with designs, especially with bright colors
- Twill - I've experimented with Twill iron-on patches and now looking for a source of twill by the yard
- Spray Adhesive - Dritz Quilting Adhesive Spray - DO NOT USE STANDARD ADHESIVES, they can gum up the needles
- Standard Stabilizer (I've been using the roll)
- Water Soluble Stabilizer (Need to note the Pellon # that I've been using)
Ian's Step Notes:
- Art Prep
- Need the embroidery Design
- Need an outer circle stitch - I used embird to add a "basting stitch" in the editor.
- Gather Materials
- Make a fabric sandwich - front fabric, back fabric - can use the same fabric. Can fuse with adhesive or with a fusable interfacing material
