How to make it
Safety
Irons get hot enough to burn, so set it upright when you're not pressing and unplug it when done.
1Plan the layout
Lay the jacket flat and set out patches. Snap a photo once you like it.
2Heat the iron
Set it to cotton with no steam. Let it get fully hot.
3Press the first patch
Cover it with the pressing cloth. Press hard for 30 seconds with no sliding.
4Flip and press
Turn the jacket inside out and press the back of the patch 30 more seconds.
5Check the edges
Let it cool. If an edge lifts, press it again.
6Repeat for all
Work 1 patch at a time. A few hand stitches on the corners make them last.
Edie's tipWash it inside out on cold so the patches stay on longer.
