Why is Tender Touch coming loose in 1 handwash? Applying this to children's clothing for a boutique. Not good!

I'm applying Tender Touch on the inside of children's clothing for a boutique and I've tried using the suggested temperature...it came off in spots. I tried a higher temp (300) and it comes off in spots. What is going on with this product?

I have found that it helps to use steam, and even a damp press cloth if you can't use steam. The most important thing (especially with knits, which is the most common thing we embroidery probably), is to use a pinking shears to cut the edge about 1/2 larger than the design, and/or a rotary cutter with a pinking edge or wavy blade edge. This tolerates the constant stretching much better. It will usually re-iron down again for you, but if you can, pink the edges before you do.
