Thread notes

  • Standard thread is the everyday choice for most embroidered patches.
  • Rayon thread has a softer sheen. Metallic thread adds sparkle. Neon thread glows under bright light.
  • Screen colors are approximate. Ask the team if you need a thread matched to a specific color.
  • Metallic thread is stiffer, so very small text is better in standard or rayon thread.

Woven Thread Swatches

50 colors

Woven patches are made on a loom with very fine thread, so they hold small lettering and fine lines. Choose from these woven thread colors.

Woven notes

  • Woven patches use thinner thread than embroidery, which is why they suit fine detail.
  • Metallic woven thread gives a shiny accent on borders and lettering.
  • Colors on screen are a guide. Ask us for help matching a brand color.
