I used Velco dots and then just tacked down in about 4 areas with about 4 stiches.I got these thermo adhesive patches on my last camino. I’d love to put them on my backpack but not sure how. My backpack is the Osprey Sirrius. It is made of nylon. I don’t think I can iron the patches on..
So I was thinking to use either glue (ES6000) or stitch them on…
Has anyone done something similar?

Good work! I’m a amateur seamstress so I always pick up my needle and threadI’ve used safety pins to attach the patches to strap loops on the back top of my Osprey pack, where I have also attached lapel pins. They are off right now because I had moved them to another pack..
Most backpacks are not waterproof. They may be water resistant, but we wouldn't need pack covers and liners if they were waterproof.I glued with Beacon Fabri-Tac Fabric Adhesive glue. (I agree about being careful sewing them on as to not compromise the waterproof integrity of the backpack)
I think that @David Tallan has used Badge Magic.Hmmm... re:Badge Magic - does look interesting
Just ordered a sheet (it did tackle almost $3.00 for shipping but reckon cant be helped)
Got a new Americans on Camino badge and we'll see how it goes
thanks @trecile
I used double-stick velcro dots. The sticky surfaces attach to the pack and the badge; then the velcro sides attach to each other. Works great!I got these thermo adhesive patches on my last camino.

I had not known about velcro "dots" until this thread. I have not been into a fabric or craft store for a long time.I used double-stick velcro dots. The sticky surfaces attach to the pack and the badge; then the velcro sides attach to each other. Works great!
If you still own the bandana a picture would be great to see! We can critique your sewing skills, too.Ages ago to help attract attention when hitchhiking I bought or sewed and embroidered flags and sewed them unto a bandana. When I wanted to display them the bandana would be safety pinned to straps on the pack.
I used Badge Magic, because I had kids in Scouts for years prior to my more recent Caminos and had plenty left over. I was a bit leery about poking holes in my backpack with a needle.Most backpacks are not waterproof. They may be water resistant, but we wouldn't need pack covers and liners if they were waterproof.
I haven't used this product, but it looks like it would be useful for attaching patches to backpacks.

Well, the bandana isn't visible any more. I'm surprised that I actually created 8 out of the 12 flags myself. Criticism should account for the fact that this was done while traveling with a backpack.If you still own the bandana a picture would be great to see! We can critique your sewing skills, too.

With the Badge Magic, the badges have stayed on, no issues, for several Caminos so far with no signs that is about to change.
It's awesome, Rick! Does each flag represent countries/places you have visited?Well, the bandana isn't visible any more. I'm surprised that I actually created 8 out of the 12 flags myself. Criticism should account for the fact that this was done while traveling with a backpack.

I sewed mine on but where there was overlapping fabric. My pack is a Gossamer Gear Mariposa.

I suspect there is some sort of Scouting organization in Australia that also has merit badges. Maybe there is a similar product for Australian scouts.Pity they won't mail to Australia
We tried ironing them on, using a tea towel over the badge for protection. However, they came loose about halfway through our Camino. We've just had them professionally stitched on my a seamstress and she's done a great job.I got these thermo adhesive patches on my last camino. I’d love to put them on my backpack but not sure how.

I’m not easily impressed (easily swayed according to Mrs HtD, but that’s different isn’t it?) but that’s really great work; well done.Well, the bandana isn't visible any more.

You’ll not get hit by oncoming traffic with that on your back. It’s like wearing your pilgrim CV. Impressive.
Nice logo.Just used 4 velcro patches for my badge, no needle holesView attachment 142477
Killjoy…Patches are for rookies.
Well then, you didn't really add a patch.Mine is covering the Osprey ad
Robo, did you glue on top of the Osprey patch?
It was good enough for hitchhiking purposes. That was flags for just that trip but it was a long trip; 13+ months in Polynesia and Australia almost to the antipode of where I started. A couple of cheats of less than a day though. I threw in the Hawaii state flag with its Union Jack to confuse folks.It's awesome, Rick! Does each flag represent countries/places you have visited?
Yes, it was a handy location.Robo, did you glue on top of the Osprey patch?

Get a new patch and sew it over the ugly stuff...moto.I used glue that was recommended for putting patches on backpacks - didn't hold. Now my backpack has a big ugly shiny circle with rough edges... can't stand looking at it! Won't try that again.
Too lazy to sew one on... plus, don't want to damage the bag more. Otherwise I would have done that in the first place hahaGet a new patch and sew it iver the ugly stuff...moto.
I only sewed/tacked mine down in spots. It didn't take long and you can't tell.Too lazy to sew one on... plus, don't want to damage the bag more. Otherwise I would have done that in the first place haha
Just one question - how much weight do those patches add to your backpack?

Hey JeanineOTC, please come clean and give us the scoop on the name of the glue you tried once, but won’t again. Enquiring minds of backpack patch putters want to know! Thanks mucho!Too lazy to sew one on... plus, don't want to damage the bag more. Otherwise I would have done that in the first place haha
Just looked it up on my Amazon account - Aleene's Fabric Fusion.Hey JeanineOTC, please come clean and give us the scoop on the name of the glue you tried once, but won’t again. Enquiring minds of backpack patch putters want to know! Thanks mucho!

We used superglue to attach ours to our Osprey packs (different models than yours but same fabric). Four years layer they're still there. No apparent effect on the packs.I got these thermo adhesive patches on my last camino. I’d love to put them on my backpack but not sure how. My backpack is the Osprey Sirrius. It is made of nylon. I don’t think I can iron the patches on..

Superglue? KwazyGlue? ¡Cómo no, chuey! Mais oui ! But of course! Why didn’t I thinka dat? Kudos to you!We used superglue to attach ours to our Osprey packs (different models than yours but same fabric). Four years layer they're still there. No apparent effect on the packs.
Do not iron them on. It will melt a hole in your pack. You can get patch adhesive on Amazon. I got a brand called Patch Magic.I got these thermo adhesive patches on my last camino.

@Yoyo, between giving you an I love it and now I thought of three variants that members might be interested in. I hope you don't mind.My solution was to sew two patches of the same size together back-to-back and use an eyelet and keyring to attach them to my backpack.
Glued, Sewn or Ironed?
Hola Robo. What brand or type of glue are you using?Yes, it was a handy location.
I've since added a couple of flags, and the glue seems to work OK.
Hola Robo. What brand or type of glue are you using?
Muchas Gracias.Just a fabric glue from the hardware store.
I've used different types.
Badge magic can be ordered from Amazon. It works great. I just heat it a bit with a blow dryer and my patches don’t come off. Just be sure to cut it as exactly as you can, so the edges will stay down.Hola Robo. What brand or type of glue are you using?
That’s frustrating!
I stuck mine on with E6000 glue and for now it looks good! But havent used my backpack yet so will have to see how well they stay on..

Help! I too am looking for this same patch. It fell off my pack doing the Norte this year. Didn't realize it fell off until I got on the plane home.Does anyone know where I can buy the Frances distance patch online (see attached)? I have searched high and low and to no avail. Thanks!

I was looking for a way to attach a patch and Gorilla waterproof Fabric Glue for Patches was recommended so I might give it a try.I used Gorilla Fabric Glue. Is only been about 6 months of moderate use, but so far so good.View attachment 142579
