Embroidered patches can be attached to nearly any fabric by sewing, ironing, or even using a simple adhesive. Embroidered patches are a simple and attractive addition to almost any piece of clothing—but don’t stop there! Below are ten unique uses for embroidered patches.
#1: Work uniforms
A traditional use of embroidered patches is on uniforms such as police, fire fighters, or security workers. But really, any workplace can use embroidered patches to display a company logo or employee names on uniforms.
#2: Team spirit
Members of a sports team or club can use embroidered patches on their uniforms, bags or 
other gear to remind their competitors who they are up against!
#3: Where in the world have you been?
World travelers will appreciate building up a collection of embroidered patches from all their travel destinations. Attaching them to a backpack or jacket can be a great conversation starter about your trips!
#4: Keep it in the family
Planning a family reunion? Instead of the traditional t-shirts or hats, consider getting embroidered patches as a souvenir for all your relatives—or, if your family is big enough, using embroidered patches as nametags!
#5: Add personal flair
An embroidered patch that depicts a personal interest, hobby, or passion is a simple way to turn a basic bag or piece of clothing into something that is uniquely yours and lets the world know who you are.
#6: Show off your accomplishments
Kids will be proud to have embroidered patches announcing to the world that they are a sports star, on the honor roll, or the winner of a school or community award. For adults, think about “employee of the month” patches for your star workers.
#7: Support a cause
Let people know what you believe in! An embroidered patch bearing the name or logo of 
an organization you support is a wonderful way to generate publicity for a cause that is important to you. As an added bonus,you can support many organizations by purchasing their patches.
#8: School spirit
Students can show off their loyalty to their college or school by displaying an attractive embroidered patch in the school colors. These can also be a simple school fundraiser.
#9: Personalize your bag
We’ve all been there: you get off an airplane and stand by the baggage carousel to claim your black duffel bag… only to see a dozen other black duffel bags. An embroidered patch is a great way to make your bag stand out from the crowd!
#10: Easy gift
Traveling somewhere new? Embroidered patches make great gifts: attractive, useful, and easy to pack for your loved ones back home.
