Steps to Sewing a Patch:
- Turn the hat inside out for easier access and to protect the outer material.

- Thread the needle with your chosen color and tie a knot at the end.
- Sew the patch: Use a simple running stitch or backstitch around the perimeter.
- Finishing Touch: Once sewn, tie a secure knot on the underside of the hat to prevent unraveling.
- Turn the hat right side out and enjoy your personalized creation!
Tips for Success:
- Use a needle size appropriate for the patch and hat thickness.
- Consider using a thimble to protect your finger.
- Start with a small, simple patch for practice before tackling complex designs.
