Meet the Maker
My adventure into sewing and embroidery is all my husband's fault. As an Army Signal Corps veteran, he couldn't find patches to celebrate his time in service, so he asked if I could figure out how to make them. Then he got into flight simulators with his veteran buddies and asked if I could make covers for his expensive gear. Then he asked if I could make a patch board so he could display his patches on the wall. Each time he suggested I sell what I made because others would like to buy it too. Six years later, we've sent products to all 50 states and 20 countries and our shop has upgraded equipment to commercial machines. I love sewing and embroidery and I love making custom items. Each one tells a story and for a short time, I get to share in someone's story. Whether it's creating unit patches for our warriors in uniform or making patch boards to celebrate a warrior's career, I have been blessed to celebrate the men and women who serve in the armed forces and in first responder roles. The next step on the learning journey is making more items for home decor, so join our newsletter to be notified when we put out new products. https://tinyurl.com/ytm9br7j
How it’s Made
Each patch is handmade. It starts with a digitized embroidery design that gets approved by the customer. Then, the embroidery machine stitches out the design. After it's cut out, sealed, and trimmed, I customize each patch with either iron-on/sew-on backing or hook & loop depending on what the customer wants. Once the patch is deemed worthy by a drill sergeant level quality inspection, it gets sent off to its new home.
