Abstract:

Customizing messages using character patches, by attaching a set of character patches to a substrate, using hook and loop fasteners. An assortment of character patches is selected and provided by a supplier. The user selects which ones, but not all, of the assortment to use, as a set, and arranges the set in a desired order to create a user-determined message. The selected character patches are mounted to one or more receptive patches on the substrate, in the arranged order, displaying the user-determined message. A sheet of the assortment of character patches, die-cut in a character patch layer, can be supplied mounted on a backing layer. As the user selects and removes character patches, the remaining character patches remain all together, mounted on the backing layer. The characters include at least one of numbers, letters, or other readily-recognized non-artistic characters, and can include characters which contain only artistic expressions.
