Quilt in a Day Forums

Hi,
Well, it's a cool 110* right now and I forgot to fry an egg on the sidewalk today.... will have to do that tomorrow and report back. LOL

Anyway, I'm on a mission/treasure hunt. The owner of the uniform shop where my DH gets his uniforms is a serious collector of those embroidered patches found on law enforcement, fire personnel, EMT, ambulance, Forrestry, etc. I thought it would be fun to see how many different ones I could collect for him and I'm willing to trade for a FQ or two. His seamstress who does the alterations is also a quilter and she thinks it would be lots of fun. USED patches are perfectly OK. Everyone in the store this morning, including a few officers, thought it was a real cool idea and would bring smiles to the owner's face.

I do hope I'm not out of line posting here - It's not a chain letter or anything and he WILL get all of the patches that I receive. I'm going to ask my dad if he still has one when he was on the fire department.

Well, enough babbling and thank you in advance.

My DH was police reserve officer and he had some patches. If I can find them I'll send them to you for your project. I'll let you know.

I don't have any patches for you, but I think that's a cool idea

I have a friend who produces police patches, he leads a company to produce custom embroidered patches on request: [url]http://quality.e-patches.ca'>http://quality.e-patches.ca[/url] The company is from canada. Several times I ordered him specifically police badges and they were great. Only now that I care for a specific project, which That company can not take. Do you know where I can find a company that will perform my patch of very large sizes? PS. Sorry for my english.
