"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
this might be slightly off topic, but we have recently been embellishing putting green material (weird I know) and after testing about a dozen ways of getting the design onto the material, we figured out using a plastisol transfer with a 100lb cardstock masking (we cut a square the size of the logo) worked the best. The material melts at 290-300, and the transfer fails under 320, so we use 330 and mask and it works. If embroidery doesnt work, though I think that is the best option, you could try something like masking with cardstock...as ghetto as that sounds...if melting is a concern.
We did something like this for graduating students..looks sort of like the sash they wear....we embroidered.
