Embroidered patches are often referred to as fabric patches, iron-on patches, or embroidered appliques. However, most fabric patches require ironing to adhere them, typically to fabric materials or to mend holes in clothing. Hi你好's embroidered patches have an adhesive backing that doesn't require ironing, allowing them to stick to smooth, non-fabric surfaces. They are perfect as stickers for water bottles, phone cases, laptops, notebooks, pencil cases, helmets, suitcases, and more! Let's create something unique with these patches! 🏷 How do I use embroidered patches? Using Hi你好's embroidered patches is simple~ ▪️ Smooth, non-fabric surfaces: Peel off the backing and stick it on. No ironing needed, and it stays put! ▪️ Fabric surfaces: Preheat your iron to 150°C (300°F). Place a pressing cloth over the patch to protect the embroidery threads from high heat. Iron for 20-25 seconds. Once cooled, it will be secure. For added durability, reinforce it with needle and thread. If you don't have an iron, sewing it onto fabric with a sewing machine or by hand will also ensure it stays firmly attached! 🏷 What if the fabric cannot be ironed or I'm unsure if it can be ironed? For materials that cannot be ironed (e.g., down jackets, nylon, leather, waterproof fabrics) or if you're unsure about ironing, we recommend sewing it on with a sewing machine or by hand to secure it. This avoids damaging your fabric with high heat! 🏷 How is the adhesive on the embroidered patches? Will they fall off easily? Hi你好's embroidered patches have a strong adhesive backing. They are not likely to fall off when applied to general smooth, non-fabric surfaces. If attaching to fabric (clothing, pants, hats, etc.), please iron it on and reinforce with sewing for increased durability. 🏷 Will the embroidered patches fall off if washed? Once ironed and reinforced with sewing, the embroidered patches can withstand machine washing without easily falling off. We recommend washing them inside out in a laundry bag. 🏷 Can embroidered patches be reapplied? The adhesive backing on embroidered patches is for single use and cannot be reapplied. We suggest determining the desired placement before attaching. If you remove a patch and wish to reuse it, the fabric surface of the embroidered patch can still be sewn onto fabric for decoration! 🏷 Will there be residue after removing the applied embroidered patch? The adhesive on embroidered patches is strong, and some residue may be left behind after removal. You can use sticker removers or adhesive removers to clean it. Before using any remover, please check if your item's surface material is compatible to avoid damaging your belongings! Do not use a hairdryer to remove residue, as the adhesive on embroidered patches will melt with heat, becoming stickier and more difficult to remove!
