Materials and Construction

• Integrated heat-activated adhesive (iron-on backing) for secure attachment to most fabrics

The embroidery threads and base fabric are selected to provide a textured surface and vibrant appearance, creating a patriotic patch that stands out on both light and dark garments.

Please refer to the selected variation or size option to determine the exact dimensions of the patch you choose. Larger sizes are usually best suited for jacket backs or tote bags, while smaller sizes fit well on caps, shirt fronts, or smaller accessories.

How to Use the Iron-On Patch

This America 250 embroidered patch features an iron-on backing that adheres to many cotton and cotton-blend fabrics. Follow these general steps for application:

• Preheat a household iron to a high temperature suitable for cotton or similar materials. Turn off the steam function.
• Place the garment or fabric item on a flat, heat-resistant surface such as an ironing board.
• Position the patch with the embroidered side facing up and the adhesive side against the fabric in your desired location.
• Cover the patch with a thin pressing cloth or a piece of cotton fabric to protect the embroidery.
• Press the iron firmly onto the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds, applying steady pressure without sliding the iron.
• Turn the garment inside out and press again from the reverse side for an additional 15–30 seconds to improve adhesion.
• Allow the patch and fabric to cool completely before wearing or handling.

For fabrics that are heat-sensitive or for items exposed to heavy use, sewing around the edges of the patch is recommended after ironing.

Recommended Fabrics and Uses

• Suitable for most medium-weight, heat-tolerant fabrics such as denim, cotton, canvas, twill, and some polyester blends
• Common applications include:
  • Jackets, coats, and denim vests
  • Backpacks, school bags, travel bags, and tote bags
  • Baseball caps, beanies, and hats
  • Hoodies, sweatshirts, and casual tops
  • Tactical vests, riding gear, and club apparel (when compatible with heat and stitching)

Always test a small inconspicuous area of the fabric with your iron settings before applying the patch, especially on synthetic materials.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care helps preserve both the patch and the garment it is attached to.

• Turn garments inside out before machine washing to reduce friction on the embroidery.
• Use mild detergent and a gentle wash cycle when possible.
• Avoid very high heat in dryers; air drying or low-heat drying is recommended to protect the adhesive and threads.
• Do not apply direct high heat from an iron onto the embroidery without a protective cloth.
• If the edges begin to lift over time, reapply heat with a pressing cloth or reinforce by stitching around the perimeter.

Construction Quality and Made-to-Order Details

• Each patch is embroidered after the order is placed, providing a freshly produced item rather than long-stored stock.
• Consistent thread tension and stitching patterns help maintain even coverage and a refined appearance.
• Color combinations are selected to clearly represent the American flag elements within the butterfly design.
