Product Information
Full details
These Prym Sew-On Patches in Camel are designed for crafters and DIY enthusiasts looking to add durability and style to clothing, especially leather and medium-weight fabrics. The key benefit is their pre-punched holes, simplifying the sewing process for repairs or decorative accents. A potential caveat is their suitability primarily for sewing, not iron-on applications. The product offers two quality sew-on suede leather patches, ideal for alterations, repairs, and decoration, measuring 10cm x 14cm.

FAQs
Are these patches iron-on?
No, these are specifically designed as sew-on patches and do not have an adhesive backing for ironing.
How many patches come in a pack?
Each pack contains two Prym Sew-On Patches.
What are the dimensions of the patches?
Each patch measures approximately 10cm in width and 14cm in height.
Can I use these on very thin t-shirts?
While possible, these patches are best suited for heavier fabrics like denim or leather. They may be too stiff or heavy for very thin materials.
What color are the patches?
The patches are a camel color, resembling natural suede leather.
How should I clean the patches?
Spot clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking to preserve the suede texture.
Can I cut the patches to a different size?
You can cut the patches, but doing so will remove the pre-punched holes. You would then need to create new holes or hand-stitch around the edge.
Troubleshooting
Thread is breaking during sewing
Ensure you are using a strong, suitable thread for leather or denim. Check your needle; a leather needle might be beneficial for thicker materials.
Patch feels stiff after sewing
This is normal for suede leather. With use and time, the patch will become more pliable. Avoid excessive moisture which can stiffen it further.
Patches are difficult to sew through
Use a sturdy needle and apply firm, consistent pressure. If hand-sewing, consider using a thimble to protect your finger and increase force.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
