Making a Patch From a Baby Sweater | Saving a Childhood Memory using Embroidery

If you want to skip straight to the build: https://youtu.be/BUeFPaArYRI?t=63 I gave new life to a sweater I had when I was a Baby by turning it into a patch. The Process: I stared by cutting the design away from the shirt. Then I cut out some Heat Bond* paper to match making sure it covered the entire design with at least an extra 1/8th of an inch border without out extending beyond the fabric. I then used an iron to seal the adhesive to the back of the piece. Using a pair of scissors I cut 1/8th of an inch away from the design. I then pealed the backing off the Heat Bond*. I realized later it would have been better to leave it on. I used some embroidery thread to go around the entire patch to clean up the edge. Finally, I cut out some Velcro* pieces to cover the entire back and ironed them on using the Heat Bond as the main adhesive. The Velcro* had a strong adhesive but I wanted to make sure it didn't come off. If you enjoyed the video please give it a like and let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
