How to Use: Iron-On Application Instructions
To attach the Sequoia National Park embroidered patch using an iron-on method, follow these general steps:
- 1. Prepare the Surface:
- Place the garment or fabric on a flat, heat-resistant surface such as an ironing board.
- Ensure the fabric is clean, dry, and free of wrinkles in the area where the patch will be applied.
- 2. Set the Iron:
- Preheat a household iron to a high temperature suitable for cotton or similar fabrics.
- Turn off any steam settings; use a dry iron only.
- 3. Position the Patch:
- Place the patch with the adhesive side against the fabric in the desired location.
- Align the patch so the Sequoia National Park giant tree design is straight and centered.
- 4. Protect the Patch:
- Cover the patch with a thin cloth, pressing cloth, or piece of cotton fabric to protect the embroidery from direct heat.
- 5. Apply Heat and Pressure:
- Firmly press the iron onto the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds.
- Apply even pressure without moving the iron back and forth to allow the adhesive to melt and bond.
- 6. Press from the Back:
- Turn the garment inside out if possible.
- Press the iron on the reverse side of the fabric behind the patch for an additional 15–30 seconds to strengthen the bond.
- 7. Cool and Check:
- Allow the area to cool completely before handling.
- Check that all edges are firmly attached; repeat the process briefly if any corners lift.
Optional Sewing for Extra Security
For heavy-use garments, thick outerwear, or frequently washed items, stitching around the border of the patch after ironing can provide additional durability. Use a sewing machine or hand stitching to sew close to the edge of the patch, matching the thread color to the border for a neat appearance.

Care and Maintenance
- Washing: Turn the garment inside out before machine washing to reduce friction on the embroidery. Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry when possible or use a low-heat setting in the dryer. High heat may affect the adhesive over time.
- Ironing After Attachment: If ironing the garment later, avoid prolonged direct contact of the iron with the embroidered surface. Use a cloth barrier and moderate heat.
- Edge Inspection: Check edges periodically, especially after repeated washes. If any area begins to lift, re-iron with a cloth cover or reinforce by sewing.
