Default where to get appliques made?

I want to offer distressed applique as a type or decoration on t shirts and sweats. Does anyone know who does this or how it can be done. You see lots of
it at resorts or retail stores but almost nothing for schools.

thanks for you help.

we use a product called subliflock from johnson plastics, we can sublimate on it then cut it out and iron it on, the patch will last longer then the shirt. we use this when we do cotton shirts. looks really good. good luck

Generally it is an applique that has a frayed look around the edge. You sew it to the shirt with a running stitch away from the edge of the applique so that the edge of the applique will fray when it is washed.

Default Re: where to get appliques made?

By distressed applique, you are talking about the Abercromie look with the frayed edges. This is done with a laser. You sew the fabric to either the top or back of the shirts and then cut it with the laser to get the distressed look in either regular or reverse applique. We do this on a contract basis with our laser in our NC plant.
We would be more than happy to help anyone looking to offer this but not ready for the big laser investment yet.
