To anybody reading this comment:

Either this makes perfect sense to you or it doesn't. There is no in between.

He mostly prefers boots but he did say exceptions can be made.

I find an image he likes or make my own design for him.

Local tshirt lady does a vinyl sticker of each layer cost like 2 bucks or I print the image to paper, little harder this way. I then cut each layer out of material, some fake leather type stuff and some thin vinyl.

Went to a local upholstery shop and got scrap material. Got couple yards of 5 or 6 colors for 20 bucks, enough to probably do 100 patches.

Then I use 3m double sided tape to piece them together. 20 bucks for a couple sheets, enough to do probably 10-15 patches.

I have had it pull on some of the skinny letters, but I just cut a little piece of tape and re stick it after cleaning with alcohol.

I thought about running a stitch around each letter, but my sewing machine is junk and I don't know how to work it correctly anyway (probably why it's junk lol)

I have probably made 10 of them to give to friends. They aren't up to par with mxpatches but they get the job done cheap. I have un-stitched them and moved them from pant to pant. The boy gets a kick out of them and it's time we can spend together making a design, him telling me what colors he wants to use and such.

The local t shirt lady always gets a kick out of the stuff I tell her I need done. He currently wants to put his logo on his reading glasses, either going to do a sticker or a stencil then paint on the side.
