Iron Patch
Patches Are Available In Many Different Types Today
Patches are a common means to identify employees, signify membership in a group, reward outstanding performance or to make a political statement. With modern technology, embroidered patches are more popular than ever.
From military units to mechanics, bikers to Boy Scouts, patches are a nearly universal signifier of identity. Designing custom embroidered patches can be easy and fun using today's computer technology. Many options are available in terms of color, size, backing and embroidery percentage that enable just about anyone to create a patch that's perfect for virtually any kind of organization or group.
Embroidery has been a traditional hand-crafted art for thousands of years. In the past, it was prohibitively expensive for all but the very wealthy. But contemporary machine embroidery offers all of the design possibilities of hand-stitching on easily reproducible, economical custom patches.
Just about any design can be turned into custom patches. Decide what you want your patches to say, then contact any reputable supplier. Their graphic artists will be able to help you create a work of art your group members will be proud to wear.
Consider the colors you want to use. There's a broad variety of both thread and twill colors available for patches. No matter if you want your patches to be bold or subtle, you can create exactly the look you want. Many companies offer up to 7 thread colors free, and can add metallic or even neon-color threads for even more visual appeal.
The size and design of your patches will determine the percentage of embroidery. Simple, text-only designs will generally be 50% embroidered patches. At least half the patch surface will show the twill backing. The open space is great for showcasing your text or simple logo.
The next step is 75% embroidered patches. These will feature a much larger amount of embroidery, perfect for vividly displaying both text and artwork. Really intricate designs and logos require 100% embroidered patches, on which the embroidery thread covers the entire twill backing. These patches feature the most detail possible on embroidered patches.
Patches are available with two types of border. The choice of which type is best for your design will depend on the design shape, style and degree of detail. The traditional "merrowed" border is the standard design for patches. This features the customary wraparound design of stitched thread. These maintain a higher degree of visual separation from the garment they are attached to.
Hot cut borders are the other choice. These are laser cut, perfect for custom patch shapes and designs on which you don't want to sacrifice detail. They lie flatter against the garment they're applied to, yielding a more integrated look than the merrowed style.
Consider backing type as well. Several styles of backing are available for embroidered patches. For short term, temporary applications, peel-and-stick backing is ideal. Military units often use Velcro backing. This allows patches to be removed and reapplied easily.
The most common backing type is the standard sew-on backing. This allows the patches to be sewn onto garments easily. Iron-on backing also is available. This style is perfect for quick application but will be less durable than the sewn-on style. Iron-on backing also can be used to hold patches in place for sewing, and the plastic backing adds sturdiness and seals the entire back of the patches.
