When it comes to colors, I’m a mush for matte black. Gloss certainly has its place but to me a matte finish is the dog’s tuxedo. A matte finish isn’t just color, its a texture that adds physical feel to the emotional connection color enables. Hang tags with a matte finish are a natural pair.
dStrands took advantage of one of Quality Woven Labels killer specials pairing woven labels with hang tags:
dStrands spec’d their hang tags to be a simple oval shape with one-sided printing. Hang tags can be made in any shape, stock or custom with one sided printing or with both sides printed. Simple with great color choice, dStrand’s hang tag will certainly make their handcrafted items pop!
The matching woven label is a miniature version of the hang tag helping to build brand identity. The iron-on backing will make the label easy to apply to garments.

 Wilderness Medicine Outfitters (WMO) has been teaching wilderness medicine for over 40 years, with their first class being held in 1967. Located in Elizabeth, Colorado, WMO’s classes focus on positive personal attention, while offering credentials recognized by state, national, and professional groups. WMO pioneered distance learning WFA classes.
WMO offers basic wilderness first aid, WFR/WEMT (Wilderness First Responder and Wilderness Emergency Medical Technician, respectively) to the most advanced WALS (Wilderness Advanced Life Support) classes. One notable class is Leave No Trace, which focuses on low impact backcountry activity and prepares the student to teach others all the master skills. Hard and soft survival skills are taught individually and in small groups at any location.
 The size of the classes is limited to 24 students, ranging from professionals or aspiring professionals in the outdoor industry, to outdoor recreationist and self-sufficiency enthusiasts. Ranging from men and women in their 20s to 70s, they are caring, educated folks who have witnessed an accident and want to be better prepared to handle the next one.
WMO uses custom embroidered patches as tools of recognition for its thousands of students, with most of them being placed on Back Country Care Givers packs and jackets.
As seen from their patch, Stadri can offer patches in many unique shapes, along with different fonts and colors. Request a quote for your custom patch today!

 Their next WALS (Wilderness Advanced Life Support) class is March 21 to 25. The course has a maximum of 15 students taught by 8 to 10 specialists—four of whom are Fellows of the Academy of Wilderness Medicine, utilizing 3 to 5 cadavers to teach almost every emergency procedure you might have a chance to work with. Space is still available for this class.
All you have to do is visit Stadri’s homepage and there you will see dozens of testimonials from happy, satisfied customers. Most of these testimonials have been from the past couple years, and are a mere fraction of the praise we receive on a daily basis. Are we bragging? Not entirely. Anyone can post a few testimonials from the most recent years they’ve been in business. But how pleased were our customers from say, thirty years ago—long before the age of computers and email?
Out from the Stadri archives emerges a flyer from 1980. While the design may be crude, the testimonials about our service don’t lie. Below is the transcript.
Mrs. B.D. of Syracuse, NY writes: “The maroon and white colors are just right. I am sure we will be doing business again next year, as we are very satisfied with your service.”
Mr. C.G.F. of Meeker, CO writes: “We have received excellent reactions to this splendid piece of work.”
Mr. Tobin of Indian Springs Security, Boynton Beach, FL, who ordered 500 patches, says: “You can put me on your list of satisfied customers.”
Mr. R.F. of McElhattan, PA writes: “They really went over big! A mighty fine job.”
Mr. J.P.T. of Jefferson, MD writes, “I am writing to tell you how much we appreciate the superb job you did on the club patch. We cannot be happier with the workmanship involved.”
MR. G.D.D. of Milwaukee, WI writes: “The results were very satisfactory. Since we are so pleased with the patches, enclosed is an order for more.”
Mr. V.M. of Baldwin, NY writes: “Our organization was very pleased with our last order, so we have decided to use you once again.”
Mr. John Palumbo of Glen Cove, NY writes: “I am very pleased and satisfied with the patches; you did a very good job.”
Mr. T.E.T. of Mt. Pulaski, IL writes: “We were very pleased with the patches we received. The detailed coloring on the patches was great and we would gladly recommend your work to anybody.”
Stadri has been making happy customers for the last thirty years. Our goal is to do the same for the next thirty years to come.

 Squaw Custom Woven Patch made by Stadri Emblems It seems like I’m always talking about how great our embroidered and woven patches are. We use the best machines, threads, twill’s, and processes to make the finest patches in all the world! This edition of the hand-picked series showcases our abilities in creating custom woven patches.
The intricate snowflakes on this patch are absolutely wonderful! Woven patches like this produce more detail than an embroidered patch, as the threads are woven together on a loom instead of stitched onto twill or other substrate. With the patch approximately 2 1/4″ x 1 1/2″, the snowflakes are less than 1/4″ in size, with fine details given to the structure that makes up each snowflake. This woven patch is diecut, giving it a clean diamond shape with heat-seal backing that allows it to be ironed on to the outside of a jacket, hat, or other type of garment. Remember, when you’re looking for fine detail, woven patches are the pick.

Who doesn’t like a good skull heart design? The folks over at Derbylove write a comic and produce roller derby inspired products using a cool hear skull logo:
 Derbylove Woven Label made by Quality Woven Labels Derbylove used a thicker denier on their woven label than the purple cow woven label written about earlier. Perfect for use outside of a bag or garment, the thicker thread holds up well to wear and tear. Being a straight cut label, this label can be sewn on all sides for proper branding of the product. This particular label was spec’d with a heat seal backing that will probably be used to attach it.
If clearer lettering in the “live fast skate faster” motto was wanted, the label could have been made bigger, been weaved with a finer thread, or a different process could have been used.

Judging by the uses listed on their website, The Original Wonder Pot is a highly versatile tool!
 The Wonder Pot Printed Label made by Quality Woven Labels Quality Woven Labels, a subsidiary of Stadri Emblems produced this printed satin label with a sew allowance in mind. The design looks off-center, but the space to the left is referenced with a small line enabling proper space for the printed label to be sewn into a seam. Once sewn, the visible portion of the label will be perfectly spaced. The location of the sewing allowance depends on where the label is going to be used.

Emailed review to Stadri Emblems about our sister company Quality Woven Labels:
Hi Christina,
I just received my shirts with the emblem your company created using my artwork. Words cannot do justice to what I saw. As you know, I had very high hopes for this [woven] label. Being a quality independent apparel company is very difficult. Every detail must be the best they can be. You and your company [Quality Woven Labels] went above and beyond my wildest expectations. They look better than I hoped and I’m sure you remember, I was hoping for a lot in a very tiny space.
Thank you for taking the time to continually call me and advise me along the way.
. . . I am looking forward to a great relationship with our two companies.
Thank you again for all of your hard work!
Sincerely
Charles

Purple Cow
I never saw a purple cow.
I never hope to see one.
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I’d rather see than be one!

 Purple Cow Woven Label It was love at first sight with this woven label for nothing more than the beautiful purple cow. Simple and clean, this woven label is made with a fine denier giving great detail and a soft feel – the lower the denier rating, the thinner the thread used to weave the label and the greater the detail. This square, straight cut woven label was made without backing and will probably be sewn onto the item. Very cool purple cow!

Our Facebook friends and Twitter followers have been enjoying patches I’ve hand picked for different qualities and shared on Stadri’s social streams. I love design and talking about our customers, but Facebook and Twitter haven’t allowed me to write about what drew me to a particular embroidered patch or woven label. Hand-Picked is our new blog series that will hopefully allow for more detail.
First Up: H ogzilla’s:
The larger size of a back patch is great for showing fine details. Hogzilla’s logo makes for a fantastic patch that makes great use of the space showing the individual hairs on the hog’s head. The custom patch has a sketched look to it with purposely placed drag stitches. The menacing gaze of the hog makes me feel like Hogzilla’s takes barbeque very, very seriously.
A quick aside – I did a search looking for Hogzilla’s website and stumbled upon some images of ‘Hogzilla’ and have now given myself something to fear. The animals in America’s South are legit!
