Embroidery combined with printing patches
Custom woven patches can be used in almost every way embroidered patches can. Using thinner threads that are woven together instead of embroidered onto a fabric, this results in a patch that has a smooth appearance with no raised texture. They are ideal when a design is too detailed or complex to be achieved with the embroidery process. It is also a great way to achieve photographic realism. Human faces, landscapes, and small text can be reproduced on smaller sized patches in a way only possible on large embroidered patches.
