Whether you’re hitting home runs as part of a sports team or crushing sales with your company mates, felt patches are an excellent way to showcase the unique elements that define your group. At American Patch, we offer custom felt patches in any shape and size to help you bring your team spirit to life with an elegant aesthetic.

Custom felt patches  come in either synthetic or wool, each offering its own distinct advantages and benefits. Synthetic felt is less expensive and comes in more colors, while wool felt provides a premium feel that’s a great choice for experienced embroiderers or for those looking to take their skills to the next level.

Once you’ve hooping your design and performed a trace, it’s time to start stitching. A simple running stitch is a good choice for beginners, and you’ll want to make sure your stitches are even and consistent. We recommend using a thread that matches or complements your patch color for best results.

“Crafting Identity: The Appeal of Custom Felt Patches

After the embroidery is complete, the patch will be cut and finished with a seal to help ensure the edges stay in place. Afterward, you can use a felting needle to soften the edges of your patch for a clean, professional finish.

You can also add a merrowed or die-cut border to your patch. A merrowed border is slightly elevated and wraps around the edge of your patch, while a die-cut edge has a smooth, flat appearance. We can also embellish your embroidered patch with premium thread options like glow-in-the-dark threads or 3D puff embroidery for an extra splash of style.
