20 Best Glue For Fabric To Wood (2022 Updated)

I bought this in hopes of fixing a pretty big tear in the top of my golf travel bag. I was skeptical since gluing fabric and having it actually bond well doesnt seem possible, but so far, Im very impressed! The repair came out looking better than Id hoped and it seems to be able to hold quite a bit of abuse.

Instructions are very easy and it dries pretty fast. The real test will be when I travel again but I think it will hold up just fine. Thanks Gorilla Glue!.

This glue has an abhorrent smell. Reading the fine print on the package is says: “HARMFUL VAPOR. Do not breath fumes. ” But let me tell you, the fumes are so pungent that even in well ventilated areas, how do you NOT breath in the fumes? Terrible.

I have used Sobo Craft Glue for many years. This product does alot more than what is stated on the bottle. I have used this glue for jewelry, fabric, repairing broken furniture, chipped vases/bottles etc.

For paper products it adheres and dries quickly in matter of seconds. For metal, fabric, wood, glass you must allow it to sit for a small length of time (such as 1 hour). Once that the this glue is dry the item is not coming apart! It holds better than most glues that I have used.

Comes out white and then dries clear. Simply use a tooth pick to apply the glue on small items where pieces are difficult to apply. What is really great about the product is that one small bottle will get you through over 50 projects or more if you are an individual that constantly crafts paper, jewerly, etc.

It goes a long way verses using adhesive tape. Very cost efficient! I give this product a 10 Star Rating.

I needed a good thick glue to add some feathers to a mask and after searching on the internet, I found this SOBO glue. It is thicker than Elmers and holds tightly to paper, wood and other porous materials.

It is a handy, all-purpose craft glue. I don’t believe it is meant to be water-proof, so if you need that, you would be wise to buy something else, but for simple arts and crafts this glue works well!.

Doesnt stick in my limited experience. Bought to do a glue seam on a set of thermal curtains. Followed instruction but it didnt stick, apparently you need to clamp in place. It was quicker to sew a seam in the end.

Dare say it has its uses but didnt do what I wanted it to. I. e. stick fabric together quickly.

Classic Copydex made by Pritt knocks this upstart out of the field. UHU make superb general glue, but this textile stuff dries too stiff, cannot adhere to metal even though the tube says it can. Tube is a squirty delinquent, too.

Doh!.

For a little tube, it certainly goes a long way! It has a ‘school glue’ consistancy, and you only need a bit – don’t go mad like I did as it’ll ooze over the sides! Once I knew how much to apply (or rather how little) it worked exactly how I wanted it to and doesn’t budge, even when I tested it by pushing it to its limits by trying to pull it apart! This was used to glue EVA foam to fabric as part of a costume, but I’d definitely consider using this for other fabric applications in future – brilliant stuff!.

It works great on fabric! Just what I was looking for. I also mended my son’s wallet with it. It bonded material and a thin layer of paper together. So glad I bought this product!

Every one of these lovely sample packs has proved great. Let me know what works and how and what I want to get more of. And Aleenes has proven itself. Work as stated. Really useful

This glue is awful. I tried all 3 in the set. I could not get the felt to stick to the cotton fabric with this glue. I ended up having to use hot glue. Waste of money, luck it’s cheap! Save yourself a few bucks and do not buy this glue!.

I bought this 4 or 5 years ago for hemming my jeans. When I first used it , it seemed so liquidity I thought this stuff won’t work, but boy was I wrong I followed the directions and in a few minutes it was working.

The jeans I hemmed up five years ago have not loosen even a little. My only complaints are fining a place that sold it, and that once you open container you have to use it fairly quickly, or it begins to dry up.

Otherwise, fantastic glue for leather or fabric.

I’ve used Tear Mender a few times in the past year and I’d have to say that it’s better than I expected it to be. The pros of the product from my experience are that it reduces repair time of fabrics when compared to sewing.

It dries to an almost water tight seal depending on how much you use in a specific area. It also has a twist top that makes it more user friendly. And with proper care, the bond it creates between the fabrics can last a very long time, if not indefinitely.

As for the cons, the liquid dries to a rubbery consistency that has a pale yellowish appearance to it. In addition, it creates a fairly strong bond, but I recommend using the product in combination with sewing for maximum strength if the item you are repairing is meant for rough use.

Great fabric glue. I had concerns it would be crunchy or scratchy but it’s hardly noticeable. If you know where the glue is you can feel it but it’s generally unnoticeable. It also lasted though a run in the washer.

Very flexible and invisible. I’m perfectly pleased ^_^.

This fabric fusion product has been recommended over the years. Though I did not use it for the project I was working on, I will utilize it for other projects in the future. And, I loved the 3-pack – good value!.

Used this to glue various pieces of costume jewelry to velvet in a frame. Much cleaner than hot melt glue. Let it sit over night and everything adhered perfectly.

Have used this for years to glue my fabric to my paper templates for English paper piecing. Get consistently good results. The papers stay until I want to remove them and then pull off easily when tugged gently.

I bought this a few weeks ago for my first hexagon project. It is so fast and easy to make the hexagons by gluing then into the paper pieces and then sewing them by hand. The glue works perfectly – you only need a line of it and it holds the paper pieces until sewn together.

Much faster than hand basting and no problems releasing paper when finished.

This glue stick is fantastic. The slim profile allows you to precisely apply glue to very small or narrow pieces. The glue texture is soft, it goes onto the fabric very smoothly. I used this for gluing thin strips of Lycra spandex material before sewing and it worked great.

This the best glue. You can wash it and it stays on. I use it to glue doll hair on my dolls. It is really washable. Works great on paper, fabric, metal. Craft stuff. Great stuff I highly recommend it.

It’s the best fabric glue on the market. It’s permanent and washable, quick and easy. No stitches needed. Though, I usually add a few to make a perfect bond.

This Aleene’s fabric glue works just jim-dandy. When you use it, you do have to let it sit for a while to dry, but it does work to adhere fabric to fabric or items to fabric well. I use it to apply appliques to garments, but you could also use it for attaching rinestones, notions or whatever you want to fabric, really.

It’s also sold for an affordable price, which makes it even better.

He really did!! More than once!! Bad dog. I tried glue basting and haven’t stopped!! This squeeze bottle works really well to control the flow.

Love the glue for making the folding start hot pads. They are so kuch fun. Glue is water solvable, which I love.

I love this product!! I have used basting glue before, but this accordion-type squeeze bottle makes it so much easier to use. It is a bit expensive, but worth it. The Roxanne brand is a great quality.

It bonds well with or without heat, but washes out easily.

When ordering, I thought I was ordering PERMANENT ADHESIVE. This temporary adhesive will not work on the projects I purchased it for. They need to state that this is a TEMPORARY adhesive more PERMANENTLY! I am glad I also ordered another product, I sincerely hope it is a PERMANENT ADHESIVE, as advertised.

I highly recommend Aleene’s No-Sew Fabric Glue. It is of high quality and it has worked so far on everything I have used it on. I love this stuff. It has held everything together so far so good. I could not be more pleased with this product.

I am so glad I decided to make a last minute purchase and I ordered this product. Thank you for making a strong & good quality product for consumers to use.

I love using this glue but keep in mind, this is only temporary. It helps you keep certain items in place before you sew it. However, once you glue it and it dries, it does become awfully difficult to remove.

This fabric glue sticks onto other fabrics well until you wash it.

I do a lot of hand applique. This product makes the freezer paper method easy. That said, it has become impossible to find in stores. I am so glad to find it on your website!

This glue has never disappointed me. It works well although I wish there was more for the cost. A bigger project can wet expensive.

This really makes non-sewing. I needed it to hem my pajamas and it works great. I also used it on my bra straps, it seems them were always slipping. I just put this on and the next morning my straps stay at the right length! When you wash anything you have used this fabric glue on it comes out great! I would highly recommend it!.

I make bead embroidery bracelets a lot and lately customers want the ones without a cuff blank inside but with clasp which means it must be flexible, like second skin. I had tried Tacky glue, Hypo Cement and Jewelry glue Dazzle Tac to glue embroidery to the ultrasuede backing but all these glues made bracelet quite stiff and not very flexible and me dissapointed.

Then I noticed this glue in the aisle and was wondering could be this better solution? I tired it and couldn’t be more happy about this discovery! My bracelets are perrrrfect! Flexible and nice, and yet the glue holds everything together perfectly and I like that it doesn’t have strong smell.

You just must be careful not to put too much glue so it wouldn’t stain ultrasuede.

Great product little expensive good repair quality using sparingly! Was very slow shipping response!

Great product , I purchased to start doing rhinestone projects. A little goes a long way. Highly recommend. Haven’t had any stones fall off

This stuff is awesome- first of all it fixed my daughters springtime dress- it dried clear and has already been through the wash 3 times with no breaks! Then I learned it can bond crystals to plastics and metals so I worked on my old coffee mug and took it from dull to Hello Sunshine! Oh and it is non-toxic!.

Works like a dream! Adhesive is an understatement. It’s basically lock-tight for fabric. whatever you glue is NEVER coming off.

Amazing stuff. Washable. Have used as a hemming glue. Also have used for repairing my favorite handbag. Used to repair my husband’s shoes when regular shoe glue failed. He’s happy to get another few months of use before they finally have to be discarded.

I love how strong this glue is and how many projects you can use it for! As a doll crafter, I use it inside the doll head after rerooting to hold the hair in place. It works on many kinds of surfaces and has a very strong hold.

Well worth the money!.

I bought a few cans of this for applying Tolex to pine speaker cabinets. I’ve tried several different types of adhesive for this. Rolling on liquid contact adhesive works well but is not consistent for me.

3M 77 spray works really well but the spray pattern is not very tight and it gets all over the place. When I tried this product, I was surprised when it came out like crazy string but it did come out in a narrow cone pattern.

You had better be set up and ready to go though as it tacks pretty fast. It is not as repositional as 77 is but you can work with it. I covered a 2 ft. x 2 ft. x 11 in. speaker cab and Marshall style head with tolex and used less than two cans.

Nice price too even though the cans are smaller than 77.

Wow. I wish I had found this 5 years ago when I started my gig bag business! I’ve been struggling through with 3M Super 77 for years, paying almost double what this 581 costs with terrible results. It just doesn’t hold foam very well to fabric and doesn’t stick foam to foam at ALL.

This 581 on the other hand holds amazingly well and, importantly, doesn’t bleed through fabric! The hold is just unbelievable! The way it looks/applies takes a little getting used to. It is a bit tricky to get a nice, thin coating and any overspray looks really weird — like silly string! But that viscosity is also what, I believe, keeps it from bleeding through fabric, so I’ll take it.

Even when you get a gobby-looking bit on your fabric, it flattens out and doesn’t leave a bump or anything. I’m now ordering a dozen bottles to have ready to go! ps: Sewists: It will gum up your needle a bit, but no more than fusible adhesive (I always sew-through the heavyweight fusible).

You should be changing your needle with each new project anyway (ahem), so no worries! 😉 If you really love smooth needle insertion, give your needle a spray with liquid teflon before sewing.

I carefully covered two new MDF speaker cabinets with Tolex using the 581 adhesive exactly according to the directions, sprayed it on carefully and generously, making sure to get good coverage at the seams, etc.

, rolled the tolex down with a laminate roller and everything looked good. After about 6 months the material is completely pulling away from the cabinets. There is a sort of oily sticky residue on the back of the Tolex and it will not stick back down at all.

I’m going to have to completely strip the cabinets and start all over with new Tolex. Needless to say, this is going to be a huge and difficult job when I should have been done and able to just relax.

I’m a photographer and have used tons of 3M Spray Mount and other adhesives and have never run into anything like this.

Well what a revelation this glue has been. I ordered it cause my last fabric glue had dried (different brand) and I wanted something strong. This glue ticks all the boxes. Its clear and dries close to invisible and seems reliable.

It also says machine washable as long as its acid free detergent which is why I got it but I havent had to wash my project yet to tell you. What I do know is Im so glad I got this glue and I would recommend to friends.

I have used all kind of fabric glues but this one really does the job! I have used it on different kind of fabrics (including cotton, canvas, linen, wool, woven trims, nylon woven bracelets) and everything is still glued on for good! Though if you use thicker layer than you supposed to, the fabrics become little stiff (for me that was absolutely great, I wanted that, but for all of you who don’t want to add stiffness, just use a thin layer.

Using it for crafting and it seems yo glue most things to…..well, most things. Very pkeased. and good delivery
