What is it?

[scifan57]

Do you have any clues other than the photos that might help?

It's obviously an embroidered patch of some kind.

Yup, but what is the patch and what is it attached to?

Another pic attached which may help ...

The main structure is floppy and your on the right lines with embroidery but it's not a basket.

A bag?

Military hat badge?

Not a hat badge no. It does have a military link although this is historical and doesn't apply for its current use.

Clues...

1. This item would be loved in some parts of north London but despised in other parts.
2. The item has been in use (in various forms) for over 125 years.

Well, seeing as I'm such a football fanatic (###) & originally from London (tho south of the river...) I will step back & let others pick up & run with this!

(###) I'm a fibber, too

What are these patches in the concrete for? What is the process called?

Is this what you were referring to?

These patches are made of concrete and are filling holes drilled in the concrete walk.
These holes were drilled to correct a problem in the sidewalk.
What is the name of the process involved?
