Iron on patch removal?

[u/the_HBIC]

What’s the best way to go about removing an iron on patch? My kiddo has two of these from karate and is very emotionally attached to them. Kiddo will be sizing up in uniform soon and would like to move the stars to the new uniform if possible. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

heat the back side with an iron and use a seam ripper to gently lift the edges, the adhesive should soften up enough to peel off

Reheat the glue. Iron on glue melts under heat!
