Fabrics like denim and cotton provide the best base for iron-on patches. As a general rule the fabric you choose should be at least as heavy as the patch.Look at the fabric care label to see whether it can be ironed (if not, there will be a crossed-out icon of an iron). If there's no label, try to figure out what material it's made of.Be very careful with polyester fabrics, since applying the high heat necessary for ironing on patches can burn the fabric or cause it to get discolored.Silk and other delicate fabrics are not good candidates for patches. 2. Think about design and placement. Before you heat up the iron, lay out your jacket, sash or backpack and decide where exactly you want the patch to be placed.If this is the only patch you intend to iron on this piece, put it in a tastefully prominent position. Make the placement look intentional.If you're planning on ironing on more patches, like you would for a girl scout's sash or any other type of collection, plan ahead to make sure there will be room for additional patches.If you are using a printable paper patch, remember that letters and other asymmetrical items will appear reversed. 3. Lay the base item on a flat, heat-resistant surface. An ironing board is useful, but if you don't have one, you may also lay your item across a doubled-up bath towel on a sturdy table.To ensure the item will provide a good surface for the patch, iron it first. If it's a backpack or another item that's difficult to iron, do your best to arrange it so that the part of the fabric that will be receiving the patch is flat against a hard surface.4. Place the patch in the position you chose. The adhesive side should be flat against the base fabric. Make sure that the patch isn't crooked.On embroidered patches, the adhesive side is the underside.On transfer paper patches, the adhesive side is the side where the image is printed. Place the image face down on the fabric. The paper backing will be peeled once the patch is ironed on.If you're using a fusible webbing, the fusible web backing should be against the fabric.If you're using a patch meant to blend in with fabric, you may need to apply it to the reverse side of the article of clothing. Follow the instructions that came with the packaging. 5. Heat up an iron. Turn it to the hottest setting your fabric can tolerate. Make sure the "steam" option is turned off, and that your iron isn't full of water. 6. Place a thin towel over the patch. Take care not to disturb the position of the patch. The towel will protect the patch itself and the surrounding fabric. 7. Position the heated iron over the patch and press down. Hold the iron there for about 15 seconds. Apply as much pressure as you can by pressing down firmly. 8. Consider sewing around the edges. For a completely secure patch, use a sewing machine or a needle and thread to secure the patch to the fabric. This greatly reduces the chances that the patch will fall off.Choose a thread that matches the patch.Don't attempt to sew around the edge of printable paper patches.
