I love making the embroidered patches on my pillowcases. The process of sewing the material together with the iron is so easy and satisfying, plus the process of getting the fabric to stay on my pillowcase is also very satisfying.
The process of making iron on embroidered patches can be done in a variety of ways, but it really depends on the type of fabric you’re using. Silk and velvets are very forgiving, but they may take a little longer to iron and/or get stuck.
In my experience, when I make my pillowcases with silk and velvets the iron will sometimes catch on the fabric and get stuck, just like when I iron on patchwork or t-shirts. The other day I was ironing on a pillowcase and decided to try ironing on a patchwork. I was having a lot of trouble getting the iron to stay on the fabric, so I decided to do it upside down. It worked like a charm.
Here’s what to do: iron right side up. If you can find a pillowcase and patchwork pillowcase, you can iron the wrong side up of them (since you’re going to have to iron on the right side of them to get right side up). If you can’t find a pillowcase or patchwork pillowcase, you can iron them on the wrong side up.
So I went to the fabric store and I got the pillowcase and the patchwork pillowcase. Once they were on my pillowcase, I went to the fabric store and I found a ribbon and I sewed a patch on it. I was so excited I decided to share it on my Instagram.
I think the easiest way to do this is to cut a paper and paste it on top of the patch. It’s a really quick process that you can do while youre asleep and it wont take long either. The reason I say this is because you can take the patch and iron it on the wrong side up, but you just cant iron the wrong side up.
I’ve never thought of ironing as a good way to make patches. I’m pretty creative though so I think its alright. I think it’s also easier to sew on a patch then to iron.
Like I said before, ironing patches is a lot easier because you can cut them as you go instead of laying them on the fabric.
Ive never sewn on a patch before, but I think the process is a lot easier to do with a patch on your fabric. When I was sewing on the fabric I would try to get it as close to being perfect as possible, but I would usually go with the wrong side up.
If you are looking to sew a patch, you should be able to find instructions on how to make them yourself. There are a few sewing tutorials that should help. You can also search for online printable patch-making tutorials.
