Hit 50 custom patches sewn onto jackets this month

I run a small side gig making embroidered patches for people's denim jackets and vests, and I just counted - I sewed on 50 last month alone. That's a lot more than I expected since I only started offering it back in March. Has anyone else here hit a surprising number with a specific project or technique?

Fifty patches in a month is a solid number - that's almost two a day if you think about it. Makes me wonder how many jackets that actually translates to since some people go patch-crazy while others just want one. Reminds me of when my cousin got really into ironing patches onto his old backpack from college, ended up covering the whole thing within a few weeks. Not quite the same as sewing onto denim, but you'd be surprised how fast those little projects add up once you start.

That's a lot of needle time in a month for sure.
