FAQs
Can I use these patches on leather?
It is not recommended to use iron-on patches on leather or plastic materials, as the heat required for the adhesive may damage the surface.
Do I need to sew the patch on?
Sewing is optional but recommended if the garment will be washed frequently or subjected to heavy wear.
What if my iron has steam holes?
Always use a thin pressing cloth between the iron and the patch to avoid the steam holes marking the embroidery or the fabric.
Are these machine washable?
Yes, once properly adhered, they are machine washable. Turn the item inside out and use a gentle cycle.
Can I remove the motif later?
Iron-on patches are intended to be a permanent modification. Removing them may leave adhesive residue or damage the underlying fabric.
Troubleshooting
The patch is peeling at the edges
Reapply heat using the pressing cloth or use a needle and thread to secure the edges with a whip stitch.
The adhesive is not melting
Ensure your iron is set to a cotton-appropriate heat level and that you are not using a steam setting, which can interfere with the adhesive.
Pros and Cons

- High-quality detailed embroidery finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply the motif via iron, set your iron to a medium heat setting without steam. Place the butterfly motif in your desired position and cover it with a thin pressing cloth to prevent direct scorching of the thread. Apply firm, steady pressure for approximately 30 to 45 seconds. Once finished, flip the item inside out and press from the reverse side to seal the bond. For high-stress areas like elbows or knees, we strongly recommend reinforcing the edges with a few stitches. To clean items with these motifs, turn the garment inside out before washing in cold water and air drying whenever possible to preserve the integrity of the embroidery.
