Members skeeter1966 Posted April 12, 2015 Members Report Posted April 12, 2015 I recently have had patches sewn onto my vest, and they are not in the right position. I was wondering if I had them moved how do I go about dealing with the pinholes? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! Quote

Members zuludog Posted April 12, 2015 Members Report Posted April 12, 2015 Yes, TwinOaks has it right. If you unpick the patches the stitching holes will always be there but they will reduce or 'mellow' with time. Try working the vest with a small amount of leather grease, that might help Only you can decide which is preferable - wrong position or holes Quote
