put back patch on vest/jacket

so i have tried to sew a perfect back patch ....but i had to think after many have come out lop sided or even just had big bubbles .. so here is an easy very cheap way to place one and actually have it look god and stay ....

you will need
1 back patch
1 elmers glue or a mid grade house hold glue
tap measure or ruler
2 pieces of card board the size or larger than the patch
and sewing needle / thread or dental floss-works great and stays long time!

Step 1 So you have the vest

take a piece of card board and the vest .....

lay it down flat

take a measure ment to a center area

then tape it on top and bottom

try it on look in a mirror , make sure the distances are at least similar and even is a must ...

resistant culture good band other ways to do this would be safety pins, but they don't hold very well and have a higher possibility of coming of. another way is to sew it which is the best way and strongest way to do this but it takes to long unless you use a sewing machine. both these ways are pretty easy to take off if you become unhappy with your back patch latter on in the future and wouldn't end up harming your vest.
