Echidna hot melt film is a clear heat-set film you can iron onto an embroidered design, making it ideal for badge-making. Simply cut a template of your embroidered design from the hot melt film. Place the clear side of the hot melt film template on the back of the design. Using a dry iron set at a high temperature, iron the paper side (using a firm pressure), until the film melts into the back of the design.
Remove the paper once the design cools. Then iron your design (badge), into place (place a Teflon sheet or similar over your design to avoid melting the stitches or scorching the design.)
Roll size: 12" x 5yds (30cm x 4.5m)
Colour: Paper backed clear film

Excellent product
By: Jennifer on 4 November 2026As described and super easy to use. Just hoop it and hit the start button. Excellent for when you have a customer's product that you are worried about damaging. Instead of embroidering directly onto the garment use this and top stitch to garment
