How to make patches with images

What you need:

Fabric(I highly recommend white fabric)

Transfer paste

Printed photos

Paintbrushes

About Transfer Paste

I bought mine from a local craft store, but if you buy one online that's good too. Either way make sure your transfer paste is suitable for fabric!!!!!!

1.Printing out your images

I took some higher quality images of what I wanted and pasted them in a Word documment and then I mirrored them and scaled them.

When you look for images to print, try looking for higher quality ones, because the quality of the photo will automatically go down a bit when you print it on paper.

ALSO IF YOUR IMAGES HAVE TEXT ON THEM DON'T FORGET TO MIRROR THE IMAGES!!!!!!!!!!!

Source for the images:

album covers: Google

band photos: @rock-and-metal-up-ur-ass and Pinterest

movie related images: Pinterest and Google

For scaling:

album covers work really well as 9x9cm

also don't make your images smaller that 8x4cm, because they will be too small and the details will be lost

when you are scaling the images have a ruler near you so you can actually see the measurements and is also easier to decide the size of the photos

Now that your images are scaled, mirrored and printed is time to cut them!

2.Putting your images on fabric

About the fabric:

I used white jeans for the fabric because the denim is harder than shirt fabric for example and is easier to work on. Also I recommend white fabric because the images will look better than if you were to put them on coloured fabric. But if you don't have white denim you can use white shirt fabric but it will be harder to put the image on because the shirt fabric streches.

You could look at thrift shops for some cheap white denim pants and use those :)

Now you gotta take your fabric and apply a kinda thick (because the fabric will absorb it) layer of transfer paste on the place you will put your image face down on, kinda like this:

And then you leave it to dry. I suggest levaing it to dry overnight to make sure is completely dry.

3.Getting rid of the paper

After the paste has fully dried, put some water on the fabric and use your finger to scrub the paper off. Don't press too hard because the image will rip, but also try to scrub off as much paper as you can.

After you scrubbed as much paper as you could, go rinse the fabric with water and then let it dry.

Something I want to warn ya'll about is that the image may rip in some place and there isn't much you can do about it, but try not to press too hard when scrubbing off the paper anyway

4.Coating it with glue/wood finish

After you let it dry you will notice that the image is kinda foggy, because you can't get all the paper off without ripping the image.

Get some glue or wood finish(make sure they dry transparent) and a paintbrush and put some on the image,and then ley it dry.

After it dried,cut the excess fabric from the patch and you are done!!

Note: When it will dry, the image will still be a bit foggy. Also the patch will have a leather like texture.

This is how the patches will look at the end:
