TotJO Patches was created by Kit
So I'm sure many of you have seen the patch work that I've been doing.
Steamboat
had this brilliant idea for more designs! So I present to you: the rank patches!
These are based off of the rank designs of Vesha which Steamboat manipulated and coerced me to make into patches
So at the top you see a Sr Knight rank bar (that still needs a little work in the design)
Middle is two tries at the Councilor. The left one has the back pattern done in stitching and the right one has a white-on-white fabric pattern instead to get that same idea. (I like the right one best but I have no idea how easy it is to get fabric like that...I could only find it in one fat quarter and not on a bolt) ...On the right one I had this grand idea that it'd look cool to have the TotJO emblem outlined in white so the outline would fade into the background as it got there....it looked like a blob so I did it in black over...so now it looks like a mess...but the design isn't intended that way Hey! Give me some room for experimental design mistakes
Bottom left is the Initiate rank
Bottom right is Bishop. I found some really cool baltic fabric that I think gives off the impression of stained glass like in Vesha's work. But it can easily be run on a flat purple fabric too.
Here's a (hopefully closer) look at the Councilor patch just because I love the details on the fabric...you see no white stitching :whistle: But what you DO see is a cool pattern I manage to figure out how to program the kind of wavy design in the stitching in the bar instead of a simple line I thought it turned out well!

And for anybody who has an embroidery machine, I can save these as any file your machine can use...at least I have yet to run across a machine who had some odd-ball file use that my program can't use
But here's the link to where all these designs are uploaded and amended if needed.

Currently there is only PES (Brother) because that's my machine feel free to request specific designs in specific formats!
There's also a generic "How to" on the patches loaded in there. It's the same technique I use when I make them.

Oh yes. I had to twist her arm. It was awful.
But I am totally in love with these. They're fantastic! Now I just need to find a jacket to put them on...
(For the inspiration for these patches, check out Vesha's Hi-Res Rank Bars , and my post in the TotJO Digital Art Repository , which you lovely folks should start adding to )

Are these for sale by chance?
If so, how much per patch, and what kinds are available for purchase?
