Embroidered patches are small pieces of embroidered fabric attached to cloth that can be worn to indicate membership or affiliation in organizations like schools and sports teams. Furthermore, patches may also be worn as an indicator of specific skills (knitting, crocheting or sewing) which an individual has acquired over time.

Patches are stitched onto other fabrics with visible stitches on both the front and back. Patches may be created manually or using an embroidery machine; usually circular but other shapes may also be possible; stitch choices include fill stitches and center designs.

When creating a patch, it is crucial to use a heavy cover stitch in the border of it in order to prevent fraying of edges before and after cutting out the patch. A “cut line” within the patch also assists with stitching it in place, while using a stitch called merrowing will create a thick satin border around your patch.

Iron on patches are an easy and fun way to customize clothing, hats, backpacks and other items. Their creation can take just minutes; and there are endless designs and sizes to choose from!
