How do I approach a job of 48 jackets with tackle twill on the back if I don’t like working with appliqué?

Say yes to the order and contract out the jacket backs to a production house that does appliqué regularly. Make sure you quote a price to your customer that allows for the contractor’s fees and any additional shipping that may be involved to get the goods where they need to go. Drop ship the jackets to the contractor in the first place to save some time and shipping costs.
