My Patch Looks Like a Bob Ross Painting
So you have a great design that you want to turn into a patch. It’s a kind of detailed, but it you would love to see it as a custom patch. You send it in and wait for a proof. When you get the email with the proof, you tear into it like a kid on Christmas morning. It opens up, and your masterpiece looks like a Bob Ross painting. Why?
With producing patches, you are working with a needle and thread. There is only so much detail that can be reproduced. At larger sizes, more detail can kept. The smaller the patch, the less the detail. When an artist looks at your design, he will then determine whether all of the detail can be kept at the size you requested, or if something needs to be changed.
If something does need to be changed, you can choose to either loose some of the detail, or you can make the patch bigger. There is, however, a third option called “fine woven.” Fine Woven patches uses a smaller needle and can keep a lot more detail then regular embroidery.
