Handmade Handcranked Chainstitch Embroidered Custom Pet Portrait Patch

This is a listing for a custom chainstitched pet portrait patch! I use a handcranked vintage replica chainstitch machine to embroider all kinds of things - sweatshirts, jackets, patches, denim, you name it. If I can cram it under my machine, I will attempt to stitch on it! One of my favorite things to create is custom portraits of fur-babies. There's no computer involved in any of the stitching - I steer my machine by hand using a hand crank underneath the machine. It's like I'm drawing with thread.

Once I receive your photo, I will design a portrait of your pet myself using your photo as a reference. Then, when I receive your approval, I'll stitch your fur-baby onto a wool blend felt of your choice. The design process and stitching process take time - approximately 2-3 weeks for me to turn around a stitched item.

Patch sizes vary depending on the photo. Since everything is illustrated based on photos, I can't guarantee that the size of your patch will suit a particular dimension. However, I can give a range! These are typically around 5x5" - sometimes 5x6", sometimes 4.5x5" (you get the gist).

I will include sew-on instructions for your patch when I ship it. An alternative method of attachment is ironing it on - but I don't recommend this as it reduces the quality of the patch and prevents you from being able to move it to another garment if desired.

*Wash as gently as possible - preferably by hand - and lay flat to dry for long-lasting durability of your embroidery. OR, Dry Clean. Fuzziness is expected over time*
