Does anyone know a professional who would know how to sew BDU, ABU nametapes, badges, chevrons? I just got my ABUs and I don't have a sewing machine and don't have the time to sew by hand which would take hours of time. I need this done by the 24th. Let me know if you know a business or person.
Thanks,
Josh

Goldfish Uniforms on about 57th and Bluemound. Ive taken all my stuff there and it always comes out great and the price is usualy pretty decent, its like $2 a patch or something like that.

Any dry cleaning place should be able to do it also, just pin the patches on exactly as they need to be on the shirt.

Only go this route as a last ditch effort, you will most likely get your stuff sewn on crooked, upsidedown, wrong side.... go to a pro that has someone that knows what a military uniform should look like.

I know I was thinking the same thing, I would only have a dry cleaning place do dry cleaning, never trust them with sewing. Learned that the hard way with a couple uniforms back in the day. I'll check out Goldfish, thanks!

I'd recommend a uniform shop like Lark or Red Taylor.
