A friend of mine works at Verizon. And Verizon had a mobile payment provider called Isis. Now a couple of years ago, that was not an issue. But with today's political climate, she was getting some weird looks and comments for having that on her shirt. Even though it had nothing to do with that, people would still ask. She tried to black it out with a sharpie, thinking it might not show on her shirt. But it was like that blackout embroidery. People still noticed.
So she asked me to help her cover that part up on her shirt. I thought that I could just take out the embroidered part that she didn't want, and put in her name. Well, problem with that was when I took the threads out, it had left holes where the curved part of the "s" was, and it would not work to embroider just her name.
So we came up with an idea to embroider right over it with a patch. So I digitized this:
This worked out really well, it was a little bigger than the area we had to take out. I had thought to embroider right over the old embroidery, but I figured it would make the patched area a little bumpy. So I got to work taking out the stitches of the old logo. This is the end result:
I think it turned out pretty well. I was a little nervous cause I didn't want to ruin her shirts. But it worked out!
