I did that for my daughter once. She was in the family room and wasn't going to make it to the linoleum kitchen floor (where it could be cleaned up easily) and I didn't want it on my carpet...so... in my hands it went!! It's definitely a mom thing :)Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01814407420789455322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4276080670931842601.post-18824953772551901982012-10-29T22:49:19.608-06:002012-10-29T22:49:19.608-06:00Thank you for your comments everyone!

I am lucky that Mr.TRH is very involved with scouts, because I have no clue!<br /><br />Jenny, Teresa and Erin, thank you for your advice, it is all very useful information!Sachikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06773154350531152547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4276080670931842601.post-84208347656677527772012-10-29T08:22:46.290-06:002012-10-29T08:22:46.290-06:00Oh, my goodness!

It goes fast and no matching thread to patch colors!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12578268861135307993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4276080670931842601.post-42608611483904559222012-10-29T04:40:35.588-06:002012-10-29T04:40:35.588-06:00Two of my sons are Eagle Scout, with my third son ...Two of my sons are Eagle Scout, with my third son on his way there. I use matching thread to the color of the edge of the badge (kiwi or gray). BTW, I sew the badges on with the required ones in the middle, and the others down either side of the required ones. When he has 12 required merit badges, plus 24 other merit badges (12 on each side of the required ones), he'll have enough for his Eagle and several palms.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12893380553743509516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4276080670931842601.post-92218689287335312982012-10-28T12:13:18.176-06:002012-10-28T12:13:18.176-06:00My son is an Eagle Scout and has earned a total of...My son is an Eagle Scout and has earned a total of 44 merit badges to date. I sew them on his sash in the order that he earned them, using monofilament thread in the sewing machine. Double-sided tape helps them stay in place while I'm sewing them, and if I have more than one badge, I sew them in a figure 8 pattern. Good luck to your son in his Boy Scouts - it's been such an enriching experience for my son and family!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10089553830760361574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4276080670931842601.post-25610555433289082962012-10-28T10:07:43.864-06:002012-10-28T10:07:43.864-06:00I love this so much.
