Removing Iron-Ons

[raptorgirl.livejournal.com]

I found the perfect hoodie. It was cheap and warm. I bought it. However, it's a Roxy hoodie and has these stupid little sayings and hearts ironed onto it in puffy, hot pink fabric paint.

I want to get rid of them. If worse comes to worse, I'll just put patches over them or wait for the dryer to work its magic (the iron-ons are already chipping). But I would much rather remove them altogether.

Is there an easy way to remove iron-ons without damaging the rest of the hoodie?
