Interlinked Hands Embroidered Iron on Patch

Lay your garment flat on an ironing board, then position your patch in the exact spot you want it to stick to.
Cover the patch with a thin cloth, then iron it with the highest heat the fabric can take for 30-60 seconds (check the iron icon on the tag for max heat info). Flip over the garment and iron the backside of the patch for another 30 seconds. Once the patch cools, it’s ready to wear!
Look for the iron symbol on the garment’s tag or label. The symbol looks like a small icon of an iron. If there’s an “X” through it, it means the item can’t be ironed safely. One dot, 2 dots, or 3 dots inside the icon means the item can be ironed at low, medium, or high heat, respectively.
If the garment can’t be ironed or there’s no label, sew on the patch instead so you don’t risk melting or damaging the material. The best fabrics for iron-on patches are sturdy ones like denim, canvas, cotton, polyester, or cotton blends. Vinyl, rayon, nylon, leather, silk, or other animal-product or sensitive fabrics are not good for ironing since the heat can damage them. Use firm pressure and keep the iron moving the entire time. Iron continuously until the adhesive backing is fully melted and stuck to the fabric (this takes at least 30 seconds for small or medium patches, and up to 1 minute for large ones). Make sure to iron over every corner and edge of the patch for the best result. Wait for the iron to fully heat up before ironing on the patch. The adhesive needs a high temperature to melt, and a cool iron won’t be as effective. Flip the garment so you can iron the backside of the patch easily. Go over the back of the patch with firm pressure for about 30 seconds to make sure the adhesive is fully melted and stuck to the fabric. There’s no need for a cloth or parchment paper—just iron the fabric directly. Flip the garment right side up and test the edges of the patch. Try to lift up the edges or corners of the patch with one finger. If they move a bit, put your cloth or parchment paper over the patch again and iron for another 10 seconds. Repeat until the patch is secure.
Only wash in cold to lukewarm water and where possible, hand wash the item. If washing in the machine, only use the gentle cycle. Always turn the garment with the iron-on patch inside out when washing it.
