how in the world did you make this?

@Jack It's a somewhat simple process of stitching colored yarn in a plastic grid cut out in whatever shape you want. I can't for the life of me remember the name of the grid material but what I do know is you can get everything you need to make something like this at any craft shop. I could be wrong about this though, but that's just what it looks like to me (having done something like this in the past.)

It's made using a special sewing machine called an embroidery machine. Here's how this patch was made: http://ethepony.blogspot.com/2011/08/sewing-patches-pinkie-patch.html

Lultathor is referring to (I think) cross stitch or hook & loop. This is different. The major differences between them are that cross stitch & hook & loop both have low stitch counts and low detail vs embroidery. A detailed cross stitch or hook & loop pattern may be 10 inches by 10 inches and have 500 stitches total, generally made out of thick yarn. The Pinkie Pie patch above is about 4 inches tall, and has exactly 24,006 stitches in it, and it is made out of very thin thread.
