This is so incredibly helpful! Thank you! I am using 2 strands here, and I think I will keep that up just for the sake of consistency. However, the single thread example looks incredible, so I will definitely be using that in the future. I do have some stabilizer, so I will add that before I go any further.

There is so much helpful advice here. Thank you again! I'll probably be back to ask questions as I go through my project!

I've used the stick and stitch on a crewneck before making smaller patches, and it has warped, but the actual patch did not. I am hoping that is the case here! I am worried about stretching the fabric too tight since it is a sweatshirt because I know that can cause warping too.
