From the brand


From the manufacturer

While other fabric glues tend to stiffen after washing, Fabric Fusion remains flexible, so your fabrics move with you, not against you.

Fabric Fusion is formulated to permanently adhere a wide variety of fabrics, including cotton, flannel, leather, and jersey, and embellishments for fabric, such as trims, sequins and beads.

Fabric Fusion features a clear, low odor and non-stringing formula, making it easy to work with and easy to wear.

Tips for Using Fabric Fusion

Use Fabric Fusion sparingly – too much adhesive will slow the drying process and over-saturate the fabric, which weakens the adhesion.

    I used this Fabric Fusion to attach the CSX train embroidered patch to a crocheted scarf I made for my grandson, as you can see in the picture. (The patch on the hat is iron on). It is holding up pretty good, but I also hand stitched it, just because it is yarn and not fabric. Fast shipping. I do recommend.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Does not dry clear in the long term
    Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2022
    I purchased this fabric glue 5/2021 and used it for a project with white yarn (in 6/2021 for reference) after weaving in the ends and gluing them so they would be more secure. I originally rated it 5 stars because it worked great. However, I am now adjusting my rating (from 5 stars to 3) and writing this review. This glue does not dry clear in the long term; in the attached picture you see four different areas where I used the glue, and all four are discolored. It turned a pinkish hue over time. The color difference is more noticable in person, but tried to get a picture in natural light that captured it best. While the ends are still securely in place from the glue, I cannot use this on project with white yarn (or even light colored yarn as it also discolored the light blue yarn in the picture). It may still be ok for darker colored fabric, but I will be looking for an alternative when it comes to using on white or light colored yarn or fabric.
