==================================================
How To Put On A Print Patch
Choose a piece of material that is large enough to cover both the whole and the thin area round. Never use new material. New print can be washed and faded to match. A pocket might be taken off or the sleeve cut short when material is short.
1. Cut the patch to a convenient shape. Make a single turning on the wrong side.
2. Place the patch in position and pin. Jack, then fold back the garment and sew on the patch. Do not hem.
3 Remove the tacking and press.
4. Turn to the wrong side. Cut out diagonally from the hole to within 录鈥 of the sewing. Fold back trianglular flap, crease and cut away.
5. Blanket stitch together the newly cut edge of the garment and the turning of the patch. Make a special corner stitch.
