I remember the last time I tried sewing a patch to my uniform. After three attempts to get it right I quit trying, and have not gone back to it.<\/p>\n<p>When I went to the 2001 National Jamboree one Scout&#8217;s mother agreed to sew the patches on my shirt. She did a fantastic job. The uniform stills looks great. Unfortunately, she does not enjoy sewing either, although she is good at it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">The last time<\/span> I needed a patch sewn on my shirt I took it to a lady in town who has a home business. She did a good job of sewing, charged very reasonably, but I did not feel she did a great job of patch placement before sewing the patches on the shirt.<\/p>\n<p>Okay then, I now need a new patch put onto my shirt. I do not like sewing. The mother who did a great job of sewing is no longer doing it. The sewing lady in town I am not completely happy with. What is a scoutmaster to do? (And no, I have no plans to learn who to sew!)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Well, lucky for me,<\/span> a found something online that sounds promising. It is called Patch Magic, an adhesive to apply patches to a Scout uniform. It even has how-to videos on the site. I watched a couple and it almost looks to good to be true. I am very tempted to purchase it and see how it works. You can check it out by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.badgemagic.com\/\">clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My question to the readers of this blog is, &#8220;Have you tried this product? Does it work well? Is it easy to remove?&#8221; If the answer is yes to these questions I think I have discovered a better way for patches to be placed on my uniform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I dislike sewing.
