Anyone know where I can source sublimation patches in the UK.
They are the type you can sew onto clothing etc.
There are some on ebay but they seem quite expensive at £4 each plus postage, I don't see me being able to resell at £12.00 each.

I presume that if I can find blank embroidery patches made from polyester then that will work.

Nice. But SO expensive. A 5cm circular badge to iron on (who sews nowadays) is around 85p (with VAT) and only pennies cheaper if you bulk buy. We can buy two cork backed coasters for that. Really nice idea but these are certainly not cheap enough for wholesale gifts but more personalised gifts. Shame.

I normally see nice biker sew on 8cm badges at biker fairs going for around 4.95 - 7.95 each.
Can not make it pay with the ebay prices but the ready range comes in at about 75p for a blank 8cm badge with black border.
Iron on patches are not much us for sublimation plus they don't hold well on biker gear.

TMT have some sublimation drink matts that are 100% poly and roll cut overlocked around the edges. flat so can do 100% coverage but only in a couple of sizes.
