I thought the blood chit was normally on the inside on the side, not on the back. Or does it vary?

The guy from Tipsy Gypsy recommended Adamec Harley Davidson, since they are apparently in the Jax area themselves. There’s a nice old lady who has sewn thousands of navy leather jackets over the years who does it in about 5 minutes and for very cheap. I did mine there and love the result.What's a good place in/near Jax to get patches sewn onto the G1?
I don't want to wait another decade for a second TG nametag if they f*** it up...
I decided to repress the neurosis most of us have about our G1s and just took it to Open Road Leathers on Beach inside 295. Crusty old biker dude sewed it right there on the spot in 5ish minutes for 10ish dollars. Not a wayward stitch. Sewed through the liner just fine as well.The guy from Tipsy Gypsy recommended Adamec Harley Davidson, since they are apparently in the Jax area themselves.

On the other end of the jacket shananigans scale, you’d be surprised with the number of guys who had the Corpus/Milton paraloft sew on a brown flight suit leather name tag on their nice G1.I decided to repress the neurosis most of us have about our G1s and just took it to Open Road Leathers on Beach inside 295.

+1 on the bike leather establishments.

Not the wings and things patch, imagine the API leather patch you got for flight suit Friday, on your jacket. The one on HW’s jacket looks better.View attachment 22650
Like this? I had the south whiting civ PRs sew on a plain wings n things flight suit leather patch. Looks just fine. When the embossing wears off I’ll either look salty or replace it with a better one.
God no !!!!Can we merge this with the swo leather jacket thread?
If any of you Whidbeyites can spare a trip to Kirkland, Leather Maids Tailoring does good patch work under the lining. Also trimmed the 1970s-John-Travolta-Saturday-Night-Fever-esque collar I got from Pop's Leather nicely down to size.
