I've contacted another maker, waiting to hear back.

Destry, I sent you a PM to give you another source. Let me know if you received it and how you got along with my friend.

Is she a chainstitch embroiderer? It's a pretty special skill set, not just having the machine, but having the eye to orient everything completly by hand.

Just wanted to put in my two cents and let you know that you did an excellent job. Great looking patch that appears to be period correct. Best of luck in getting your project done.

I bought three sweaters but I only need one patch. Spousal Unit and the Urchin just wanted the cool sweater and don't want the patch.

Patch came in today, it's actually 12 inches across, absolutely stunning. Wish this guy was willing to do the full order.

I've contacted two other folks who do this kind of work. No response as of yet, I'll keep everybody posted.
