Actual measurements may vary slightly based on the selected design variation, but the patch is sized to be clearly visible while still fitting comfortably on standard clothing and accessories.
How to Use: Iron-On Application
The monkey drone patch includes an iron-on backing for quick attachment to many fabric surfaces. For best results, follow these general steps:
- Ensure the fabric surface is clean, dry, and flat.
- Set the iron to a high temperature suitable for the fabric, with no steam.
- Position the patch in the desired location with the embroidered side facing up and the adhesive side against the fabric.
- Place a thin cloth or pressing cloth over the patch to protect the embroidery from direct heat.
- Press the iron down firmly on the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds, applying consistent pressure.
- Turn the garment or item inside out and press the reverse side of the patch area for additional bonding.
- Allow the patch to cool completely before handling or wearing.
Iron-on application works best on cotton and cotton-blend fabrics. Avoid using high heat on delicate or heat-sensitive materials.
Sew-On Option for Extra Durability
For heavy use, frequent washing, or placement on high-movement areas, sewing the patch is recommended. You can:
- Hand-stitch around the border of the patch using a matching or contrasting thread.
- Use a sewing machine with a straight or zigzag stitch around the edge.
- Combine iron-on application with stitching to maximize longevity and hold.
Sewing is particularly useful for items like backpacks, jackets, vests, and workwear that experience regular wear and outdoor use.

Care and Maintenance
To maintain the quality and appearance of the monkey drone embroidered patch:
- Turn garments inside out before machine washing to reduce abrasion on the embroidery.
- Use a gentle or normal cycle with cold or warm water, according to the fabric’s care label.
