How to Attach Patches: Iron-On vs. Sewing There are two common ways to attach patches to your clothes: ironing (Iron-on) and sewing. We recommend using the sewing method for better durability. Iron-On Method: 1. Prepare your items: Lay your garment flat and place the patch where you want it. 2. Set your iron: Adjust the temperature to medium (not too hot to avoid damaging the fabric). 3. Cover the patch: Place a thin cloth (like cotton or a towel) over the patch. 4. Iron the patch: Press the iron firmly on the patch for about 15-20 seconds (check product instructions for exact time). 5. Cool down: Let the patch cool before checking if it’s securely attached. Important: We recommend sewing over ironing. Iron-on patches can come off after washing or exposure to water, as the adhesive may weaken. Sewing Method: 1. Prepare the patch: Position the patch where you want it on the garment. 2. Thread your needle: Use a matching or strong thread (like polyester). 3. Start sewing: Sew along the edges of the patch with a simple straight stitch or whip stitch for a clean, durable finish. 4. Finish: Tie off the thread securely and trim any excess. Sewing ensures the patch stays in place through washing and daily wear. It’s the best choice for long-lasting results!
