How to make embroidered name tags with Velcro attachment.
Embroidered on a Ricoma TC 15 needle head.

[@mikevsamy]

Using a tracing stitch to attach the velcro is a genius idea!

[@lxstangs]

Very nice, lots of work and material.. they came out great!

[@9412Destiny]

Oh my gosh you just saved my life I've been trying to figure out how to do this velcro easily and I love this method

[@SPDesignsFL]

So glad it helped you!!

Thanks, appreciated, trying to figure it out, you made my day ♥️

This is perfect TYVM for making this video!!

[@ZsoCreative1NJ]

Thank you so much! I’m the middle of a similar project

[@SPDesignsFL]

Awesome! I really hope it helps. I have started using the brush on super glue to help from getting fraying when cutting them out and it works great

[@dalemcilwain]

I learned something new. Thank you very much.

Glad to hear that! Thank you!

Thanks for the video.. From INDIA..😃

[@tanker00014]

What stitch density did you use?

[@NAZCON87]

How to do this? Digitize? What is the size?

[@jaimiller3134]

Nice instructions. Does the adhesive Velcro stick to your needles?

[@MrBuggachug]

What program do you use to create these on?

[@fendertremolo9793]

Is cutting a thread a really bad thing?

[@craigandresen1160]

Have you had an issue with the adhesive leaking out if it gets too warm? I used that adhesive backed velcro in the past and it starting oozing out the side after a couple months. I was wondering if you've seen the same thing or if maybe the threads catch it?

[@SPDesignsFL]

We havent noticed that being an issue.

[@therearenogoodnames]

I get bird's nests on the back on my velcro using this method. What do I need to change? How close to the velcro edge do you put the last stitch run? Thank you so much!

[@SPDesignsFL]

Not sure why you are getting a bird's nest on the velcro. Sorry I can't be more helpful. I'll play around and see if I can figure it out. I put my final stitch as close to the edge as I could.

[@jhongonzalez1514]

Disculpa el diseño el programa para hacer esos portanombres ?? O como lo puedo hacer en mi máquina??

[@ericrachal6133]

Thanks for sharing... question : cotton or polyester twill for patches?

[@SPDesignsFL]

We used cotton

[@stevensimister8521]

Great tutorial and had me try my hand at making patches on my Brother V3. The issue I had when doing this, is the adhesive on the back of the Velcro caused my needle to "gum up" and keep hold of the thread, so I had to keep restarting, which made a mess of the sewing. I have since bought Velcro without the adhesive and use 505 to stick it to the back of the patch before "sewing". Did you have similar issues?

[@SPDesignsFL]

I did not have any issues with it getting gummed up, but I know others did. Sorry I cant be more helpful to prevent it.

[@MAC35REM]

Wipe some Sewers Aid on your needle and even put a bead of it down the side of your top thread spool before stitching. This will greatly help that needle gum up and it won't hurt your thread and should be just fine for your fabric as it is used for ease of sewing on fabric.

[@EcabreraEnni]

Muy buen trabajo. Aprenderé a hacer estos parches

[@smoovlatino]

That machine is a BEAST!!

[@cherylfisher6237]

Could you please post the size of the patches and the size of your fonts. great video

Hi, Could you share the dimensions of the badge?

[@katphyre]

Hi. I have so many questions. I'm brand new at machine embroidery. I just got a Pe770 used on ebay and it didn't even come with an owners manual so I'm flying blind. My daughter is mildly Autistic and we're trying to find work she can do at home. How did you begin? How do you find people who need custom patches or decals? Is it a really slow process of building clientele or were there things you did to improve your business? She loves sewing and really wants to try this but I admit I'm out of my depth. Any help would be appreciated.

[@SPDesignsFL]

Hi! We started by posting on Etsy and eBay. We also have connections with the local police department so that helped also. Word of mouth has been great for us and is the best advertising.

[@SPDesignsFL]

Tutorials and videos helped with anything we didnt really know how to do and lots and lots of trial and error.

[@DYates-tk3mf]

Do I need a 15 needle for this kind of work? If not what do you recommend for making patches?

[@SPDesignsFL]

No you could get away with a smaller machine it would all be up to how many colors you needed to use.

[@dbe_manny]

Brother makes a $350 machine that does 4x4 and you can do infinite colors, you just have to swap out the thread between

[@mjchava308]

May I ask where to find the embroidery file for the satin stitched rectangles and lettering?

[@SPDesignsFL]

I used my program Wilcom DecoStudio

[@mrdennyb21220]

[@BigOmni]

Thanks for the vid. What machine are you using please?

[@SPDesignsFL]

Thank you. It's a Ricoma TC series.

[@BigOmni]

@@SPDesignsFL Thanks for the info. Looks like a £9k machine here in the UK. So out of my price range but it explains why it looks so good :-)

[@ruthdrews496]

Ok...I’m new to embroidery so this is going to be a stupid question if anyone can answer. When it comes to the Velcro, Are you only stitching down one piece of the velcro and after you cut out the patch, are you attaching the 2nd piece of the Velcro? The client then would sew the unembroidered 2nd piece on their own garment? I want to make sure I’m following your video correctly. Thanks for the demonstration.

[@SPDesignsFL]

Yes that's correct. Some police uniforms already have a place with Velcro which was the case with these. But if not I would add the other side so they can use it if they dont already have the Velcro.

[@bashkillszombies]

I wish you listed prices on your website, I'd have loved to have supported your business! I know it can be hard, but a ballpark figure is useful, especially in a day and age where I can get exact prices and pay online in one hit on most websites. It might be time to update your site. You can do it yourself, it's very, very easy!

[@SPDesignsFL]

Hello! Everything should have a price on it under our shop page. southernpridedesign.com If you are looking for something else, just send us a message we are happy to help :)

[@UseYourManners123]

Did you say thread lock? What product is that?

[@SPDesignsFL]

Yes, you can get it at any craft or sewing store. It helps to prevent fraying of the edges. I got mine at Walmart

[@sewsowdesignstudiowfelicia3097]

This was a great video! Thank you. Do you have a Ricoma? If so, what speed did you stitch these at? Did you do anything “special” to keep your needles from gumming up due to the adhesive on the back of the Velcro? Thanks again.

[@SPDesignsFL]

Yes it is a Ricoma. I run it at about 700-800 for these. I did not need to put anything on my needles, but I did wipe them down with adhesive remover after each batch of patches.

Hi there! Thanks for the help but i got a question, what kind of stitch do you run to stick the velcro to the patch, single pass?
