Its been two yrs that i been trying to do something like this but never got around to finding out what to do, i know what i like but just getting around to it, it will have to be ordered, i would like to make pillows for my family i would need like ten of them. And would like a patch that i can sew on, my dad shirt and my mom's dress but im thinking like maybe one patch for both that would say somethign like this. 

Rest your head upon this pillow... made from these clothes I used to wear. hold them close and feel me near. 

Then i can sew them to the clothes and make a pillow cover for it. Can anyone give me any ideas or know where i can order patches that say the above. hopefully one of these year i can do this for my family. 

very much appricate. Thank you

Someone on Etsy might be able to make them for you or if there is a local embroidery shop.

Do you have a Joann Fabrics near you? I seem to remember that they sometimes have people who do side jobs with their embroidery machines. So maybe you can try to see if you can get the patches done cheaper.
