Key Features

Materials and Construction
- Base fabric: Durable twill or similar woven fabric designed to support dense embroidery
- Embroidery thread: High-quality, colorfast polyester or rayon threads for a detailed and vivid finish
- Backing: Heat-activated adhesive backing for iron-on application, compatible with most cotton and polyester fabrics

The embroidery is designed to hold up to regular wear when properly attached, with threads selected for strength, color retention, and resistance to everyday handling.
Dimensions and Size Information
The patch is available in multiple size options to suit different uses. Approximate size ranges are:
- Small: Around 3–4 inches on the longest side – ideal for hats, small bags, and smaller jacket areas
- Medium: Around 5–7 inches on the longest side – suitable for the back or front of jackets, hoodies, and larger bags
- Large: Around 8–10 inches on the longest side – best for statement placement on the back of jackets, vests, or large graduation keepsakes
Exact dimensions may vary slightly depending on the specific design layout, but each size is created to keep the “Blessed Graduate 2026” text and faith symbols clear and readable.
How to Use the Patch
The patch can be applied as an iron-on or sewn onto fabric. It is suitable for flat, heat-tolerant surfaces.
Iron-On Application Instructions
- Set your iron to a high temperature suitable for cotton or polyester (check your garment’s care label). Turn off steam.
- Place the garment or fabric on a firm, heat-safe surface.
- Position the patch with the adhesive side down where you want it attached.
- Cover the patch with a thin pressing cloth or cotton fabric to protect the embroidery.
- Press firmly with the iron for about 15–30 seconds, applying even pressure over the entire patch.
- Turn the garment inside out and press again on the reverse side of the patch area for additional bonding.
- Allow the patch and garment to cool completely before handling.
Sew-On Application Instructions
- Position the patch on the garment and temporarily secure it with pins or fabric-safe adhesive.
- Use a sewing machine or hand-stitch around the edge of the patch with a matching or invisible thread.
- Stitch close to the edge for a secure hold, especially on frequently washed items.
For maximum durability, especially on items that will be washed often or worn outdoors, a combination of iron-on and sewing is recommended.
