Can't get a picture of the current problem because indoor lighting in my apartment sucks, but the middle trim is the one giving me grief.

The velvet was fine, just straight stitched down the outer edge, blasted it with some steam and pressed it over a cloth. Took to the curve like a champ and I sewed down the inside edge. The embroidered trim not so much. I'd say it's backed with somekind of taffeta blend and I'd take a wild guess that that gold thread would melt if it came close to the actual iron.
