NT: ATCoin Patch - Profile Based

Profile Inspired ATCoin Patch

Do you love ATCoins? Patches?
If so – this swap is for you! For this swap we will be creating 1 profile inspired ATCoin patch to send to your partner that they can sew onto a garment, bag, vest, or even make into a pin!

I thought it would be fun to take the concept of a ATCoin (circle version of a ATC with a diameter of 2.5 inches/6.35 cm) and pair it with textiles – thus the ATCoin patch idea was born!

Swap Description:

• You will make 1 ATCoin patch for your partner inspired by their profile.
• The ATCoin patch mush have a finished diameter of 2.5 in./6.35 cm.
• The patch must consist of the following layers: 1 stable background textile such as felt or a textile stabilized with interfacing. 1 background fabric, this could be a fabric with a fun print or solid color. Embellishment – do some embroidery, add applique, sew on charms or buttons, needle felting, whatever your heart desires! Make it something you are proud of and your partner will love.
• Finish the edges of the coin so it doesn’t fray (bias tape, zig-zag stitch with a sewing machine, hand stitched finish, etc.)

Here is a handy tutorial if you need a few ideas: Brit & Co Handstitched Patch
