“Back Off Flatlander” and other great Maine-themed patches

Ryan.Template

Kris Johnsen, an artist I have featured every year for my annual holiday gift guide (we have framed and hung several of his pieces in our home), has organized a new endeavor called Portland Patch Project.

Each month will feature a different sewn patch designed by a local artist. Patches will be manufactured and feature the artist’s artwork embroidered. 2015 promises 12 brand new patches, a few prints and, according to the website, some surprises throughout the year.

The patches can be purchased individually or by way of subscription.
