Can you iron vinyl onto fleece.

What you ll need most people when asked how to iron fleece will tell you it s not possible. That s why i stick to materials with texture. Look for a garment with low pile. This can be remedied by using flock or glitter vinyl which is a bit thicker and therefore it does not bleed through.

Place the iron on shiny side down on the light grip mat and make sure you click on mirror image before you begin the cut. If you still aren t seeing results you can turn up the heat on your iron a small amount. If you start pressing vinyl or a similar fabric with a thicker press cloth like a fleece or flannel and you aren t getting results try switching press cloths before changing the heat on your iron. I had also heard some people say that certain patterns buffalo plaid specifically can bleed through regular vinyl.

But as long as you take the proper precautions you should be able to get rid of the wrinkles in your fleece. Both look great and hold up well on fleece. You can use flat heat transfer vinyl but it may look a bit bumpy with the fleece underneath. The project in this post was a special request for a special graduate i used a no sew blanket kit.

I ve used both flocked heat transfer vinyl and glitter iron on vinyl successfully. Switch to a cotton press cloth and try again. Use a thicker htv. I cut this out on a cricut maker but all cricut machines cut iron on vinyl so it will work with any machine.

That said i have also used regular heat transfer vinyl on a fleece throw and it turned out perfectly fine. You just have to take certain precautions use the right setting on your iron. They will tell you that the fibers will be melted by the heat of the iron.
