Check out the Mad Hatter LSD Blotter Iron On Patches I'm making :) 22

Hey Now!
I wanted to share this pre-production sample I got from my embroidery company. This patch represents over a year and a half of work. To get it produced I first had to get permission to use the image in the first place. This took me through a web of connections. Luckily I have a lot of friends in the blotter art world, so I was eventually directed to the original artist of the Mad Hatter blotter design. he was really cool, and before I knew it, I had the rights to use and reproduce the image for 5 years.
I couldn't believe it - one of the most classic and recognized LSD images in the world - and I have the rights to use it - very trippy moment. Like they say, it's all who you know...
So once I had the permission to use the image I started working with the company that produces my molecule and Hofmann Bicycle Day patches to get the design made into a patch.
Then I had a fire in my home and lost everything I had, everything but one bin of art stuff...
It took me almost 8 months to get back on my feet enough to consider working on this again.
I worked with the embroidery company endlessly. They give 10 free thread colors with any design, but 10 colors was not enough to get the design where I wanted it. I ended up paying them for an additional 7 threads (which adds to the per-piece cost of the patches, but I would rather do something right - or just not do it at all) - Then I had them re-do the image no less than 10 times, changing thread colors, and placing of the copyright mark, etc. etc, etc....
And now I believe I have something that honors the original artwork.
I sent this picture to the original artist to get the okay for production (I told him he could have a final say on any production run) I was thrilled when he told me that they looked better than he expected! And to be honest, the patch looks way better in person than the pictures...
Interested to hear opinions and thoughts 
Light and Love, DW

My humble thanks!!! I will have these in hand in about 2-3 weeks. I will have them for sale for $15 each maybe do a 2 for $25 deal. They cost a lot to get all those colors in, but I think quality is worth it...
What I can do since The Shroomery is Family to me; Anyone who gets in before I have these in hand - and posts in this thread to reserve a patch (or a few) I will give those people a pre-production special price of $10 each - I may not be able to do these that cheaply in the future - just FYI.
I will also have wholesale/vendor packs available...

Yes I can ship to Europe all day - no worries. I can ship regular first class for $5 and I think depending on your country I think international Priority comes with free tracking and costs like $15 USD.
And my humblest thanks to everyone for sending me the good vibes, it really means a lot after all that hard work to get these.
Also I forgot in my original post - but once the embroidery company was finished they took a pic, and I thought I didn't like how they came out - I was heartbroken - but they say for big orders, they will send out a physical sample. So they FedEx'ed me the sample patch, and I was blown away, their photographer sucks (my picture is above, not theirs). The patches look so dope in person!

Those patches are sick DW! I'll take one.
Are there any shipping charges with these?(in the US) Or can you just mail them in a plain white envelope?

AWESOME, thank you all so much for the support. I REALLY appreciate it and feel the love 
You're all locked in for one, for sure.
Now in terms of shipping, I can ship regular mail in the US. I usually do Priority mail for $5 for Everything, because it comes with tracking so I KNOW every package arrives. If you want I can probably just buy a regular envelope and mail it, I figure stamped envelopes would be less than a buck, so domestic, if you want to just trust the postal service, then that would be like $1
