threadbangers.com is a good one, has d.i.y silk screening etc and a bunch of cool shite

interpunk.com is a good site to buy patches n shit aswell, and they accept paypal

i agree though about making your own patches, but d.i.y embroidered patches would be a bitch to try and make and d.i.y patches usually arent as good quality as the ones you buy... i unno haha

get a pair of pinking shears, there these type of sewing scissors that are like zig zaggy, and it makes it so the ends wont fray, or you could try to like glue it, ive dont it a couple times, but its messy so you gotta be carful

they have this stuff called "fray check" I've never used it on patches so I can't say it works well, but it's worth a shot. I think it's basically a glue, but I'm not positive. You can get it at any sewing store.

Making your own is good but I mean my back patch only cost four bucks (on AY&P) and if i had done it myself it wouldnt have looked like it does
