The patch is a product of various shapes, has a fabric base on which the drawing is applied. Bright and colorful stripes on clothes attract attention, therefore they are in high demand. Often in the store it is impossible to find the patch that interests you, for example, it is too small or large, and if ordered in the store, you will have to wait a long time, and it is not a fact that it will work. In order not to fall into such a situation, you can make a patch with your own hands.
A simple way to make a patch

To create a patch we need:
  • - a small piece of denim;
  • - pen or felt-tip pen;
  • - brush;
  • - acrylic paints (red, green, black) or paints for fabric;
  • - sewing needle;
  • - Mouline thread (red, black, green);
  • - glue moment;
  • - scissors.

We proceed to create the patch.
Step 1. On the denim fabric, draw a rose outline, as shown below.

Step 2. Paint the rosebud with red paint, and the stem and leaves with green paint. This is necessary so that when we embroider, the denim does not shine through the threads. Do not dilute the paint heavily with water, otherwise it will spread and leave ugly stains.

Step 7. We continue to work on the rosebud. Select the petals. We sew arcs, stripes, lines with black threads, but try to make it look like rose petals. If desired, it will also be possible to make leaves. You can also use a sewing machine, this method will be faster.

    Patches are cool, but in stores they offer the same assortment basically, and you can make your own original, not like everyone else.
