Are you ready for another round of badges and patches??

BTW, some of the patches we ironed on Jerry's shirts DID come loose. Most didn't --Seemed to have something to do with the fabric. Higher the cotton content, less likely to come loose. And, lazy homemaker me, on the ones that came loose--we just ironed 'em back on!!!

Karyl... Can the patches be sewn on? I'm not sure of the material, but if they tend to come off certain fabrics, perhaps sewing will solve that problem??

Not speaking for Karyl, but sewing them on would be a more permanent solution. In regards to the patches releasing. I only know of one of my articles that had a patch come up. I think it has to do with the heat. Either the iron wasn't hot enough at the time or it could have been caused by our clothes dryer. It is a natural gas dryer and we rarely use anything but the high heat setting..

Just press them on and stitch it in place. That's the safest solution.

Yep.. that sounds like the solution alright!

Yes we do, sweetie....all your clothes are done on wrinkle-prevent mode with the temp set about halfway down and the dry mode set at normal or just a bit less (as opposed to "very dry".) It default resets after each cycle to 'high' everything.
Just so you know!

where do you get the silver thread to sew them on?

Re: Are you ready for another round of badges and patches??

Try any of your local fabric stores. Even WalMart might have it.

I have no doubt that a man of your talents can figure a way to sew it on!

You're the Rube Goldberg of this site!!

Just a note since this option isn't included in the poll.

We would buy 10 patches or so and are willing to get an extra badge or so (beyond the two we spoke for) if it's needed to make an order.

Jim,

Looking at your avatar, it appears that you need to check the tightness and re-align your badge. Just a kind note, as I would hate to see you lose it.

Re: Are you ready for another round of badges and patches??

I would hope that somewhere in our near future we could stock some of the badges and would have them available for immediate shipment. The store has the option of ordering some of the badges for resell purposes. We don't discriminate. Currently, pricing and having to stock so many in order to make the manufacturer's price break is our limiting factor. Please also note, we are not in the business of marketing these badges. It is really just a member courtesy being done. You order your badge and we handle the transaction.


Also, currently these things normally sell out just as soon as we get them ordered. We overstocked the first round anticipating selling some at ThunderIsle. They were gone in a wink. A lot of folks left without them.

I would suggest if you are every planning on obtaining a badge, then please participate in the next order. I think the one after this one will be after the fall.

Jerry, Are you taking names now for the ordering of badges or will that come later. I did respond to the poll but I'm not sure if you can tell from that who would like one. If your taking names, put me down for one grille badge and two patches.
