Default Proper Procedure?
What the heck is the proper procedure to follow when your vest is completely full of patches???? Do you retire it or buy another size larger and wear it over the first? I am at a loss here, I am just not sure what to do! I know there are people out there who know, c'mon.....give it up!

Roll up the new patches, sew them to your fingerless gloves-voila! fingered gloves.

You could get a duster and cut the sleeves out of it or you could buy a cape to wear over your vest, get a reversible one and put patches on both sides. Or you could seek counseling for your patch fetish.

Throw it in the trash or at least the back of the closet and never wear it or one like it again.

Put on about 60 lbs. so you'll have more surface area to attach patches.

Start adding them to your fringed chaps. Or maybe just switch to pins.
