German uniform sewing

[misfit13]

Does anyone have info on how the collar tabs, sleeve/breast eagle, rank etc. was sewed on to the German uniforms? To be more direct, was there a specific stitch pattern that was used?

I have been searching around and have not found anything on it so far and general lack of German uniform sewing specs in general. I can break out the needle and thread and go to work no problem on this end... just thought I would check to see if any of you have a answer before hand.

MOST insignia was machine sewn.But if you need to you can whip stitch it on. Nowadays if I get a new tunic or whatnot,I send to to a professional who specializes in German uniforms.
