Works for Me Wednesday: Sewing Patches Simply
Cub Scouts, AWANA, Lowes Build and Grow Workshops… know what these three things have in common? Patches, lots of patches to be sewn onto shirts, vests, and aprons. Early on in my eldest son’s Cub Scout career, I discovered a little secret that has made sewing patches so (pun intended) easy: I GLUE the patch to the fabric and THEN sew around the edges.
The glue keeps the patch in place while I’m sewing. No more patches that start off straight and end up sewn on at an odd angle – which in my perfectionist world means they have to be taken off and re-sewn… very time consuming!
Glue before Thread… IT WORKS FOR ME!
