Calling all patch hoarders...

Drum · 02-27-2007, 11:47 AM

Our own Listessa, aka "Betsy Ross, Jr.", has agreed to tackle the monumental task of creating the next panels of the famous patch "wall" at EMR's International Paintball Museum.

These are just a few of the patches that are headed her way.
Here are some more. Do you see your team in there?

Any of you who have patches that they would like to see represented on the patch wall, drop me a pm. Once we decide where to send them, we will reply with instructions on shipping destination.

Here are a couple of more pics of the team patches that are destined for the patch wall panels to be prepared by Listessa.

This will be our very first, website-wide call for artifacts for the benefit of the International Paintball Museum at EMR. Let's see how big an impact our membership can make on extending the patch wall.

Do not worry about duplications. There are bound to be many.

Thanks in advance.

I've a bagful of patches that I bought on eBay last year. I can snap a pic of them if there are any worthy of going on a display. No sense in inundating Listessa with needless packages.

Hmmm,is that all of the ones EMR had loose? I know they had a VM Empire Dragon Brigade patch,I don't see it there in any of the pictures.It wasn't on the wall last time I was there either.
Should look like this...

You win. That is the BEST comment I have recieved all morning. Should I insert a random comment about useless packages from college here?

Really tho, I like getting mail, and I'll prolly make a spreadsheet listing all of the patches and which strips of fabric they end up being attached to. Why? Becuase I am wickedly OCD. That way folks can eaisly find "their" patches. Don't worry, if I get dupes, I'll send them back.

Chaos, didn't they have a Dragon Brigade patch up already? I don't remember.

Those look wickedly cool. I'm really excited to recieve more mail! My Nasty Hurricane came today, so the UPS store people already know I am off the wall about packages. Appearntly a happy dance that involves jumping, spinning, and yipping is rare...

I can't wait to get started on this project. I will cease my mother's sewing machine tonight!

Listessa -

Chaos, no, I did not see one like that, but I was picking up patches all over the museum while we were there, so it may still be up there somewhere. It has been a long time since the patch wall was added to, so it is probably loose somewhere.

Listessa, if you want to accept the patch donations yourself, feel free to post your PO Box and let folks know of the time tables and such. I do not know any female who hates receiving packages in the mail.

Lrrpie, there will be duplicates, there is no question. Still, alot of paintball related patches looks awesome in one place and it is possible that these new panels will be hung in a different room than the current panels, so duplicates will not be as noticeable.

All donations will be gratefully welcomed, at least until Listessa's fingers fall off, that is.

Allrightie guys!

Please mail patches off to my postal mail box. I check it daily. STOP MAILING PATCHES AS OF MAY 1ST 2007!!!! I am moving at the end of May, and I don't want packages of patches to get lost in the shuffle, since there is an awful lot of ground between New Hampshire and Fairbanks. I will make sure to post again and remind everyone of the cut off. Once I am settled in, I'll be sure to toss up the new address and continue the project.

My address is:
Hold off for relocation please. New address will be up ASAP.

If you include a note with your forum name on it I'll drop you a message when they arrive, to let you know they made it safely.

I love a good craft project, and really look forward to this!

I'm having some custom patches done for our Raptor Players. Shall I have an extra made and sent?

Only if you want one included on the next set of panels.

Al Ray · 02-27-2007, 02:02 PM

Drum, those C4 patches we had talked about earlier, should I send one to Litessea rather than you? Then send (or just bring to castle) the other two to you?
