Reading the title I thought you wanted a wrist band in which case I was going to suggest a luggage label you get at the airport but that wont work!
Did you considering making them yourself from cloth?
The M&S ones are iron on, but they are fantastic - I have them on the kids stuff which goes in and out of the wash all the time - only one has ever fallen off (I probably didn't iron it on properly!!)
Is there a particular reason it has to be sew on 'cos you'll have a pretty sore arm !!
The only sewing I do these days is scout badges & I really wish they could make them iron-on!!!
I feel for you MF1... and your Ma and Aunt ... they are lucky to have you to watch out for them."Is there a particular reason it has to be sew on 'cos you'll have a pretty sore arm !! "
Thanks to everyone for all the information - I gather that the nursing home find the sew ons better ( and thankfully their seamstress will do the sewing on!). I'll research all of those and will post back.
I am becoming something of an expert in the "geriatrics with dementia" syndrome so happy to help with any queries!
ps - I would rather lose an elderly relation to a "sudden death by medical illness" situation rather than the slow decline by confusion, anxiety, upset, anger, change in personality and depression that goes with the onset of dementia. I love them both ( aunt and Ma) to pieces but to see the formerly clever, witty , happy, sociable personae disintgrate before my eyes is heartbreaking.
Its late - its time for Zebedee to go to bed!
