Griffith ACT, Australia

My son has transitioned from Joeys to Cubs and has a shirt full of badges to be sewn onto the new Cubs shirt. Badges are mostly small (postage stamp sized), a few slightly larger. There is a specific layout to follow (to be provided). Badges need to be sewn on straight and firmly so they won’t come off in the washing machine. Roughly 12-13 badges to be done. Possibility for repeat tasks as badges accumulate and other kids progress through Scouts.

Very tidy finish, worked with me during the job to make sure everything was correct. Picked up and delivered promptly
