I know last time there were questions about size. I don’t think there is a standard size but usually these are smaller than your palm.

At least smaller than my palm. My palm is approx 4”x4”.

So I’d say a good size is maybe 3” tall or across.

Anyone else have thoughts on size?

I am so here for this. I’ll be filling in my Q soon!

Size-wise, I think mine last round was on the big side, but still fit in my palm. I think your estimate is perfect!

I do think the size can vary so if anyone has specifics about size for their badge they can put it in their Q!

I may have just ordered some new felt for this swap. Inspired by @gozer’s Ewoks, I got some merino blend with a gift card that was burning a hole in my pocket. :smile:

is there a tutorial anyone could recommend?
not sure if I can join this round, but I may have time to practice & would be starting from ground zero, since stitching is not my primary craft
