{"product_id":"strykemerke-sma-sommerfugler-5-cm","title":"Iron-on patch, small butterflies, 2 cm","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSometimes you don't have the time or opportunity for time-consuming hand-sewing repairs. In such cases, iron-on patches can be perfect for a quick fix for a hole or a stain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlthough they are designed to be ironed on as they are, I recommend also sewing them if possible, as this makes them much more durable. However, you can iron them on quickly first if needed, and then sew them on at a later time.\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt's easiest to do this on a machine since iron-on patches are stiff, and it might be beneficial to use a darning foot if you have one, and then remove the feed dogs, so you can move the fabric\/garment in any direction you want. Feel free to practice on a piece of fabric with a ballpoint pen drawing of a heart or star or something. The stitches don't have to be perfectly even; the most important thing is that the patch is securely attached :) \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIron-on patches are a bit stiff, so if it's a very large worn area with a small hole, I recommend attaching a reinforcement patch to the inside of the garment first, either with machine stitching (a bit of a quilt style with stripes or squares, perhaps with thread that matches the garment?) or by using a fabric patch and Vliesofix, ironing it on the inside, and then covering the hole or stain with the iron-on patch. Of course, you can also use iron-on patches to decorate clothes that have no damage or wear!\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReinforcing the inside of worn areas is beneficial so you don't get a new hole right at the edge of the iron-on patch, where there will be extra stress from the stiff material against the thin\/worn fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hjelmtvedt","offers":[{"title":"White","offer_id":39284972421165,"sku":"HJE-STRY-Q2410H","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green","offer_id":39284972453933,"sku":"HJE-STRY-Q2410GR","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yellow","offer_id":39284972486701,"sku":"HJE-STRY-Q2410G","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":false},{"title":"Pink","offer_id":39284972519469,"sku":"HJE-STRY-Q2410R","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue","offer_id":39284972552237,"sku":"HJE-STRY-Q2410B","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple","offer_id":39284972585005,"sku":"HJE-STRY-Q2410L","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0380\/6927\/2621\/products\/DSC0425_DxO.jpg?v=1740576786","url":"https:\/\/www.myvisiblemend.no\/en-en\/products\/strykemerke-sma-sommerfugler-5-cm","provider":"MyVisibleMend","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
