I need the collective's help. I'm looking for an embroidered patch of an MGB GT, preferably an RB BGT. I've looked everywhere, MGB roadster patches are common but not ones of the GT.
This is for a Christmas present for my amazing wife.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have seen some work from this shop in Chesapeake, VA and it looks quite good. They can do custom work. Not sure if they can meet Santa's deadline.

Alas, patches are not as popular as they once were.

any interest in a MG octagon Patch? Red background white MG and octogon outline? What size would be reasonable? I know 2.75" for a cap is pretty big but that is small for a jacket or shirt breast. Or would a larger MG be of interest?
I am seriously considering running a bunch of iron-on style patches.

Michael, I finally got what I wanted, which was a digitized pic of the Blaze RB BGT. As it was so close to Christmas I downloaded a demo version of an embroidery program and used it to create the file that the embroidery shop could use. It came reasonably well for a first try. Those programs can be pretty expensive.

Wray, can you post a picture of what you ended up with please?
Chris, here it is. I could have refined it so it came out a little better, with some silver in the Rostyles, but I ran up against a time crunch.
MyranBartin thanked Wray for this post
