Troubleshooting
Patch is not staying flat
Ensure the patch is sewn securely with stitches close together around the entire edge. Use a strong, durable thread like polyester.
Thread is breaking during sewing
Use a stronger needle suitable for the fabric and patch material. Ensure you are using polyester thread, which is more durable than cotton thread for this purpose.
Print appears faded after washing
Avoid direct high heat when washing or drying. Opt for cold water washes and air drying. Iron from the reverse side on a low setting if needed.
