These Australia patches feature 100% embroidery and a durable heat seal backing. Each patch is made with heavy duty polyester thread and will not fade or run when wet, but dry cleaning or machine washing is not recommended. It can be easily applied with either an iron or sewing.
The Australian flag is composed of two main elements. In the top left is the Union Jack, representing Australia's ties to the United Kingdom. On the right is the five star southern cross, which has been on the flag for over 100 years and is one of the most recognizable symbols of Australia.
