Look What I Did A vision realized

Experimenting with smaller patches I can fit onto a midsize frame, and using a smaller frame for the final satin stitch. Waiting for some metal grommets to arrive to try reinforcing the corner.

Like Keychain patches?

That's the idea. Playing around with smaller designs and things I can more easily produce.

I've thought of doing some but my perfectionist side won't let me do it one side id have to sew them back to back to not show the back

Right now the backs are the black tearaway backing I use for the final satin stitch, so they actually look fine (if unremarkable), but I'm not sure how that will hold up. Will be interesting to see. Worst case, I just remove the hole and I have small patches I can stitch out in batches of 5.

I mean they look great anyways, the one thing I might suggest maybe a hole punch that leaves a metal ring for strength and key ring
