Creature Comforts Badge

About the Badge

The Creature Comforts Badge celebrates the furry, feathered, or otherwise beloved companions who wander through our sewing spaces, sit on our quilts, steal our chair, and somehow become quality control. This badge can be earned by making something quilted for a pet or by documenting the cozy role an animal companion plays in your quilting life.

Badge Requirements

• Choose how you want to earn this badge: make a quilted item for a pet or document a meaningful quilting experience with a pet.
• If making a project, choose something useful or fun, such as a quilted mat, small bed, toy, bandana, crate quilt, or pet-sized blanket.
• Add at least one personal touch, such as custom sizing, pet-themed fabric, embroidery, or colors that fit your companion.
• Finish the project or complete your documentation through photos, notes, or a logbook entry.
• Reflect on how your pet adds comfort, chaos, companionship, or entertainment to your quilting life.

Badge Options

Choose the version that fits your badge-collecting style.

Embroidered Patch

The embroidered Quiltbound badge is made with high-quality embroidery on a twill backing and measures 2" x 2".

This patch is designed to be sewn on, so you can attach it to a quilted tote, project pouch, denim jacket, badge banner, or wherever you’re keeping track of your quilting adventures.

Please note: this is not an iron-on patch.

Vinyl Sticker

The vinyl sticker version measures 2" x 2" and is a fun, easy way to celebrate your badge without picking up a needle.

Add it to a water bottle, laptop, sewing machine case, notebook, project bin, or anywhere you want a little Quiltbound trail marker.

Patch + Sticker Bundle

Can’t pick between the patch and sticker? Honestly, same.

The bundle includes both the embroidered patch and the vinyl sticker, so you can sew one onto your favorite project bag and stick the other wherever it brings you joy. Tiny badge dopamine, basically.

A Little Badge Note

These badges are meant to be earned, collected, and celebrated. Whether you’re learning a new technique, finishing a long-lost project, or trying something that feels just a tiny bit outside your comfort zone, your badge is a small but mighty reminder that you took the scenic route and did the thing.
