The small tortoiseshell butterfly (Aglais urticae) is one of the most familiar and colourful butterflies found across Europe. Recognisable by its bright orange wings, bold black markings, and row of electric-blue spots along the edges, this species is a welcome sight in gardens, parks, and wildflower meadows throughout spring and summer.

This small tortoiseshell butterfly woven iron-on patch is based on my original wildlife illustration, carefully translated into a high-detail woven patch to capture the intricate wing patterns and vibrant colours of this much-loved species. The fine woven threads allow for crisp lines and detailed markings, creating a miniature piece of nature-inspired textile art.

Where to Use Your Iron-On Patch

These woven iron-on patches can be applied to a variety of fabric items, including jackets, backpacks, bags, hats, denim, and more. They are a simple way to personalise clothing, decorate everyday items, or add a small piece of nature-inspired art to your outfit.

Easy Iron-On Application

These woven iron-on patches are designed for easy application to most fabrics. Place the patch in position, cover with a cloth or baking paper, and press with a hot iron for around 20–30 seconds to activate the adhesive backing. Allow the patch to cool fully so it bonds securely to the fabric.

For items that receive heavy wear, such as jackets, bags, or backpacks, additional stitching can help increase durability.

A Thoughtful Gift for Nature Lovers

These nature-inspired woven patches make a thoughtful gift for wildlife lovers, gardeners, birdwatchers, and anyone who enjoys decorating clothing with nature-themed designs. Each patch comes mounted on a recyclable backing card featuring application instructions and information about the species or subject shown.

Gift-ready and letterbox-friendly, they make an easy small gift or stocking filler for anyone who enjoys nature-inspired clothing patches and wildlife accessories.

Designed and Illustrated by Ferne Creative

Every woven iron-on patch begins as an original illustration created by me, Ferne, in my South Wales studio. I transform my wildlife illustrations into detailed nature-themed patch designs before sending them to be professionally adapted into high-resolution woven patches.

Each patch is presented on a recyclable backing card, which I also design myself and have printed in the UK.
