Such patches with large embroideries intended for jackets, backpacks, or even stage costumes have bold and eye-catching characteristics for anything from a patch to a stage costume. A single patch can range from 3-10 inches in diameter. Rigid PVC, denim back embroidery, and heavyweight fabrics are included in these patches. Heat has to be applied very carefully, or else it can bubble. Commercially, these patches can be used for athletic team logos, branded mascots, or even protest art. The patches do also have some cultural constraints such as global fashion apparel’s plus sizing, and secular oversized religious symbols.
