Appliqué Instructions
Our appliqués are designed to iron on. For extra strength you may stitch them in place.
See our stitch guide* below.
- Choose your garment. For best results, match the appliqué to a clean, similar material- jersey on jersey, cotton on cotton, denim on denim. An appliqué that is heavier than the garment to which it is applied won't sit well.
- Set iron to a high heat. Test your garment first! (Cotton setting is a good rule of thumb, but all irons are different)
- Heat the garment area before applying the appliqué.
- Place the appliqué on the garment, adhesive side down.
- Apply pressure with a hot, dry iron for 45-60 seconds without moving.
- Turn garment inside out and repeat on this side.
- Repeat steps 5-6, if needed.
- Allow the appliqué to cool and set before wearing.
Care: Wash inside-out, avoid the dryer.
*Stitch Guide:
- Use needle and thread to add 2-3 small stitches inset from appliqué edges to set it more permanently.
