Where can I purchase the hibiscus? Love your video !

[@wowwhydopplhavemyid]

awesome vid, thank you!

[@thethriftychristian82]

Love it just what I was looking for

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

glad to hear.

I found this video while looking for cross stitch patterns for plastic canvas. My mama got a machine like that. It’s nice to see our crafts cross. Thank you for that, even if it wasn’t the intent of ur video. Mom says, “There’s good money in digitizing,” but I can’t even thread a machine. She’s sneaky too cause she’ll offer me food to get me over there, say POT roast, and before ya know it I’m lint rolling threads off the floor and cutting stabilizer off the fortieth Bluey feltie. At least he’s kinda square.

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

That's hilarious! Thanks for sharing.

[@No_Frills_Carnivore]

Thank you!

If you want to add adhesive to the back, does the badgemaster accept the adhesive?

[@richardlopez5992]

hello , what is that first roll that you did not explain fully, before you mentioned the vinyl and twill?

[@ilovehandmadestuff]

i was looking at this machine and also wanted to make patch, where do you get that clear sheet you put on your hoop? i currently have a single needle one and wanted to experiment and see if that's something i want to get into.

[@David_Flournoy]

Amazon has some good prices on the clear vinyl ( I have seen it in Walmart , JoAnns, Hobby Lobby

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

Madeira offers the badgemaster.

[@wrightdesign1]

[@DorrellDaChamp]

What kind of vinyl are you using? Would Siser vinyl work?

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

the clear material used in this video is from Madeira and is called BadgeMaster: l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.madeirausa.com%2F110-15-25-badgemaster-3-15mil.html%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR1ksiAvC_las35UPlQ_QkWLCt8w1fXeZaltIMBB_DZigjbzPTrHrYeSR4o&h=AT1GSXwYS7jegz-7v76qnSk_ycpkVWCB4mT-bOgmpfe8yoiOya4qDcjLPZ0sA2kGW-H14korzYehIaYeuhFUMXMgkvP_D8O95_ppgpc4oWYKy9do_CxooDJ-RXb9KMkROHYExEKBZTlKc7JHWgeipa3I

Hi Josh, the only question is how did you get to this point in the patch making process? Do you have a video on this?

What kind of vinyl did you use?

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

We used clear vinyl from Joanns Fabrics.

[@MKBuddy1]

Do you glue the vinyl to the twill?

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

The twill has adhesive on it.

[@thethriftychristian82]

However I dont like how the spray adhesive builds up on the needles and causes fray breaks. I had to clean my needles after several runs.

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

Make sure to use embroidery spray adhesive.

[@mikebates944]

What is the purpose of the vinyl? Is it HTV or regular vinyl. Do you remove the backing from the vinyl before putting under heat press? What is the backing you used? Is it under the twill or between the twill and the vinyl? I’m more confused now than before I viewed the video.

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

Hello, the vinyl is what is used to hold the twill inplace while the stitches are formed. Here is a how to document: melco.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000861006-Custom-Patches

Where is the link to Samatha's video?

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

[@angelasandall9531]

What about Velcro on the back !

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

Hi Angela. You could add the velcro before you embroider the border. Just pull away the badgemaster after.

[@rawabithun]

[@bhutch216]

This seems like the most inefficient way to do a very simple patch.

[@MelcoEmbroidery]

Hiya Bob, we have a number of videos on how to make patches. Here is another that might make more sense for your production model. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoPPgYSamql8rKs
