So I had an idea to put my farmgirl patches on a sash, such as those used in brownies http://www.orgsites.com/ca/maryfaypendletongirlscouts/Brownie_Girl_Scout_Sash_Uniform.jpg But in counting the merit badges I found there were 75+ of them. I have an idea for my own way of displaying the badges, but I am curious to find out.
What do you use to show off your merit badges?
Thanks

I'm so new I haven't earned any patches yet but I'd love to hear folks ideas. I like all I've heard so far. Connie

I'm making mine into a mini-quilt. If I want to take to show, I'll just take the quilt . . but I haven't gotten too far on it yet. I don't want to put them on a totebag or something I'll wear because I don't want the embroidery to get snagged, and any of the little embellishments I've added to some to get snagged or damaged.
But it'll be a while before I get that quilt done!!!! CJ

Here is my sash that I made (all girl scout style) After I fill this, I will start adding to a skirt that is made out of the same fabric that I made several years ago.

I am hoping to attach mine( I only have 3 right now)to a canvas tote so as I walk places with it, I am hoping people will ask! I purchased a plain natural tote and will post pictures when I get started!

Tracy, I love the tote idea. There is no such thing as having ONLY 3 merit badges, be proud that you earned them!

Do you need to pay to do the badges? I wasn't sure on that part. Stacy |
