Embroidered Patches

Category overview

Embroidered Patches are decorative fabric pieces with stitched designs used to add logos, names, or artwork to clothing and accessories. These embroidered badges are made with thread on a fabric backing and come in many shapes, colors, and sizes.

This category is for hobby crafters, small brands, and uniform managers who need reliable, wearable branding or decoration. A simple definition: an embroidered patch is a stitched emblem that can be sewn or attached to garments for identity, repair, or style.

Browse selections that suit sewing projects, brand kits, or personal collections. Options range from ready-made motifs to custom designs with choice of backing and edge finish.

How to choose the right product

Quick answer: pick the size, backing type, and edge finish that match the fabric and use. Consider how the patch will be attached, how often it will be washed, and the look you want.

In most cases, sew-on patches give the best durability for heavy use, while iron-on or adhesive backs are fine for casual wear or quick fixes. Check the base material (twill, felt) and whether you need a removable Velcro option for uniforms.
