Fairware Guide to Patches and Labels

STITCHING Different types of stitching will achieve different looks; in some cases, we may opt for direct embroidery, and in others, we will opt for patches and labels. Artwork limitations can end up determining which process you go for. We can also produce a larger quantity of the design upfront and use the patches for different applications on bags or apparel, or just a great gift for folks to use as they please. Sending out Patches and stickers with a notebook, for instance, is an easy gift to ship.

SATIN STITCH Flat stitches are sewn closely together to cover fabric sections and used for letters, borders, and areas of design.

FILL STITCH Parallel running stitches are used to cover large areas. Different fill patterns are available.

RUN STITCH A single line of stitches. This pattern is used mainly for thin outlines or borders and fine detailing.

PUFF STITCH Satin stitches are sewn over a foam, plastic, or rubber foundation to create a 3-D puffy effect. Large round letters are recommended.
