  1. Blank patch frames source

    For White and Black we get it with no backing and no glue in 56" rolls. We also do 16.5" rolls with perm backing and plastic carrier so we can cut them on our VersaCamm for things like sweatshirts and sports uniforms.
  2. Blank patch frames source

    Remove the clear before embroidery. If you are cutting it on a roll cutter, leave it on to cut and then take it off after. We normally use a buckram backing on the patches and then apply glue to the back of that after embroidery. The sticky part can be either temporary or permanent. We normally...
  3. Making car magnets...need help

    For something like that we would use a 60 degree extra sharp from Clean Cut but really it only needs to be scored and then break it apart afterwards.
  4. Happy Mothers Day!

    We will be at Disneyland with the GrandKids. Always a fun time. Flowers and Chocolate covered Strawberries are here but the berries were hidden from the GK so they didn't eat them all. They tend to do things like that!
  5. Making car magnets...need help

    We are not that fancy but we print on vinyl and then put it on the magnet and cut it out. We don't do that many of them we I am good with that. If I had any volume for a single order I would source it out.
  6. Blank patch frames source

    For most cases for us we use the wide merrow because that is the machine we have. If we need something smaller or for complicated patches we use a poly twill and a satin stitch and melt the edge to clean it up. Using pre merrowed patches is fine, just make sure they are stuck down when you sew...
  7. Blank patch frames source

    Are you buying the blanks? Can you show them or give a link? I would think you just use a normal frame with maybe a paper stabilizer and sew an outline, tape it down and then sew your design. Are you just looking for the merrow stitch around the edge? The machines are not that expensive but it...
  8. Ugh, vendor had a fire. No backup

    Sorry to hear. Our grandkids haven't seen the inside of a school. After we saw what was going on we did the home school and they advanced 1 grade each. Plus they are testing 2 grade levels up from where they are at now. So much for public schools. Yeah, we did a boat load of yard signs, face...
  9. Ugh, vendor had a fire. No backup

    Custom Varsity Jackets, Stock Varsity Jackets and Custom Sublimation Sports Uniforms. It looks like the production facility part is not damaged or as much but I was told all inventory was lost. Sublimation seems to be less impacted. Wool, not so much. Here is the latest info. Keep in mind they...
  10. Ugh, vendor had a fire. No backup

    Well the bad news has gone out and our Seniors for this year have all cancelled their orders. I am in the process of sending refunds and sending back any patches they gave us plus all the chenille we did for them without charge. I feel bad for all of them but there is nothing I can do at this...
  11. Ugh, vendor had a fire. No backup

    Thanks, we did sign up with Game and received some material from them in the mail. Right now we are going through are chenille supplier. They have really stepped up to help us.
  12. Ugh, vendor had a fire. No backup

    The owner of the company called me tonight. We have had a good relationship for years. He was very empathetic and went beyond I would expect from anyone. I am going to start making the awful calls to my customers tomorrow about the orders, some have waited since February and now we have another...
  13. 2 Color pinstriping

    I don't think you are far off on cutting a double for the spacer. I did this a while back on a truck but I didn't cut the spacer, just lined it up as I pulled the transfer tape off and did the lay down but that was in sections for the fender, doors and bed. At most I was at 3 or 4 feet. I would...
  14. Ugh, vendor had a fire. No backup

    Here is an update. After reaching out to 4 vendors 2 ignored me, 1 said F-off and one said they would prioritize my back orders, send me a swatch book and a sample jacket. We can settle up later on the cost. Hmmm, who should I go with?
  15. Friday Giggles

    I miss JillBeans
  16. Friday Giggles

    Yeah, there are a lot of contemporary ads that fit that model as well as other venues such as sports, schools and most workplace environments.
  17. High school graduating banners with pictures

    Wow, and some people around here think I am an @$$hole. Another blocked member.
  18. High school graduating banners with pictures

    Good tip. We always run into issues with customer supplied images. They are never the correct size or ratio.
  19. High school graduating banners with pictures

    We normally will save the supplied images at 50dpi or lower depending on the size of the banner. That will help a lot. Exporting or saving as a PDF without carrying fonts and other baggage will help as well.
  20. Corel 22 font selection is very sluggish

    That worked. Thanks.
