2017 was an exciting year for Stadri Emblems. We produced thousands of patches this past year, so we thought we would take a look back on our favorite creations of 2017. We asked the Stadri Sales representatives and well as our team of artists for the patches that they loved working on this year. Since we produced so many designs, it was difficult to narrow it down to these few!
