Quilted Garment Badge

About the Badge

The Quilted Garment Badge invites members to turn quilting into something wearable. This badge is about combining fabric, batting, stitching, construction, and fit into a garment you can actually put on your body and wear proudly, or at least wear around the house while saying, “I made this,” to anyone within earshot.

Badge Requirements

• Choose a quilted garment pattern or design your own wearable project.
• Plan how quilting will be included, such as whole cloth quilting, pieced panels, quilt blocks, or quilted fabric.
• Select fabric, batting, and any additional supplies needed for the garment.
• Quilt the fabric or quilted sections using your preferred method.
• Construct the garment, paying attention to fit, seams, edges, and closures.
• Wear or photograph the finished garment and make a note about what you learned.
  

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.
