Default Labeling

Recently I started used the 'Bore Store' sleeves to store pistols. They take up less room than the zippered gun cases. BUT there was no way to label them. They're too dark for a Sharpie, and sticky labels fail after a few weeks.

I asked a Young Lady, who does a lot of needle work for any suggestions. Would machine embroidery work? She didn't think so as they have to stretch out the fabric to do it. (sigh)

Then she opined, the iron on patch material might work. I had some of that so.....

IT WORKS!!! I cut the pieces 2' X 1/2" and iron them on 2 1/4" aboce the edge. Now I can stack things and find them easily.
