What size needle and type of thread would you use to hand sew patches onto hats?
@sherlynnquintanilla6562 ай бұрын
Do you have to change needle size or thread pattern for uniform patches, or is just “ best judgement”? We are on recruiting duty and no one can change the rank on my husband uniform so I’m learning to sew myself. I have a machine but lack skills and confidence. Will be practicing this weekend for a rank swap🥹😅

Hello! I hope you were able to figure it out. Typically need size doesn't matter, the smaller the better however to prevent making visible holes. Please reach out to [email protected] if you have any questions!

So for the slanted service stripes on the sleeve, you can't just add a stripe, you have to replace the bars with a stack that has one more stripe?

I would use a seam ripper, less risk.

We typically one to open it up and then a razor to slide it the rest of the way!

If you're using a sewing machine, it ain't by hand!

why not only use a seam ripper for destitching the patches?
@GruntStitchPatching5 ай бұрын
We use a seam ripper initially to start the cut then use a razor for the rest. It's faster and a cleaner cut.

Do you sew all kind of patches? Could you show recent ones😂

Yes, we do more than just military patches. We also help police, fire departments, university athletics, and more! Fun fact, even some big biker jacket ones!

Same pay grade E-9. One with star is SGM and the one with oakleaves and star is CSGM. I assume the rank change as they are no longer in command. The same happens with E-8 Master SGT and 1SGT. One wears diamond and one does not. One is in command and one is not. Same pay, lateral promotions. When you are no longer in charge of a company, your rank is changed from 1SG back to MSG.

Can you do it the same way with decoration tape that has to be sewn around the sleves? You sew it around through the lining and base fabric?
@GruntStitchPatching9 ай бұрын
@biskay4515 yes we can do that. Send us an email to [email protected] and we can get that started.
