Merrowed Border vs Heat-Cut Border
A merrowed border creates a wrapped stitched edge around simple shapes, while a heat-cut border follows more detailed custom outlines. The right edge depends on patch shape, material and artwork. Heypal Patch helps buyers confirm border options during proof review before production is arranged.

Choose Merrowed Border When

A heat-cut edge is useful for custom outlines, detailed shapes and artwork that should follow a less standard silhouette.
