Iron-On & Sewing Instructions

Sewing around the entire border is recommended for secure attachment of this large patch. Check the backing before applying heat. Only iron on if a heat-activated adhesive backing is present and the garment care label permits ironing. If unsure, sew on instead.

1. Lay the garment flat and position the patch, checking the curve and alignment.
2. For sewing, secure the patch in place and stitch around the entire outer border with suitable thread.
3. If the backing supports ironing, cover the embroidery with a thin cotton pressing cloth and use a dry iron without steam.
4. Follow the adhesive supplier's temperature and pressing-time instructions, without exceeding the garment's permitted ironing temperature. Work evenly across the patch as directed.
5. Allow everything to cool completely before checking the bond. Reinforce the border with stitches.

Do not iron onto leather, coated fabrics or heat-sensitive synthetics unless their manufacturer explicitly permits it. Sew on when heat is unsuitable.

Care Instructions

• Follow garment and backing care instructions, choosing the gentler requirements.
• Where washing is permitted, wash inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
• Do not bleach, soak or scrub the embroidery.
• Air dry; avoid tumble drying and direct heat.
• Never iron directly on the embroidery; use a pressing cloth.
• Check edges after washing and reinforce loose areas with stitches.
