Easy way to style your clothes

You can start satin stitching directly on your clothes, however there is another simpler way: you can just buy one of our schemes and stitch it on to a piece of jean or flaxen or other suitable material. Cut the edges in decorative fashion to allow for easy blending in of the patch as shown on pictures. You will need to accurately edge the patch or dishevel the edges. Once the stitching is ready you can stabilise it from the back using special material. Then you just need to stitch the patch to the cloth of your choosing.

This approach provides the following great advantages:

  1. You can easily change patches to "refresh" your clothes. You can change them every season or whenever you feel like it -- the patches are not permanent so you don't have to keep the same stitching forever!
  2. Usage of decorative patches will allow for easy washing of your clothes since you will be able to easily remove them for washing and attach back when its ready for use.
  3. Usage of similarly themed patches will allow you to unite in the same unique style garments that would not otherwise match well.

Would you like to add matching knitwear to your wardrobe? Not a problem as our satin stitch schemes will easily allow you to do that! Just check out our knitting section for details.
