Aleene's Fabric Fusion Permanent Adhesive Sheets 5pc

Does what it says on the packet

I'm really happy with how my t-shirt turned out - I bought an EV1 by Ellen shirt online, and it had that pretty design on front, but the fabric was very thin and drapey, so I wanted to cut it out and attach it to a cotton shirt instead. I think these peel and stick sheets are meant more for stuff like patches, so I wound up needing 6 to attach this cut-out t-shirt design to the new cotton shirt, but still thankfully wound up managing to get it to work. Something else to watch out for is that they're super sticky, so they're not super forgiving, and it's hard to wrinkles out if the fabric doesn't get placed just right in the first place. Thankfully what wrinkles there are on my shirt are hard to see because the fabric is dark. The glue itself isn't thick like paper, so the logo has bend and isn't heavy. But it is a bit more stiff than the fabric is on it's own. I haven't washed the shirt yet, but with how strong the glue is, I'd be shocked if the fabric started to separate. Will report back if that happens, but so far so good.

Needed to sew badges for my daughter's Girl Guides sash. Would have taken me a long time to do everything, but with these it didn't take me long - my daughter was actually able to do herself too.

I can't believe I paid more than £5 for these rather small and weakly adhesive sheets. I followed the instructions given, and tested a smallish piece of one sheet on a smallish piece of fabric. It doesn't say whether you have to wait any time for the glue to make an effective bond, but I left it about 1 hour to be safe. After that time I gave the fabric pieces a fairly light pull and they came apart relatively easily. I was SHOCKED! (I have previously tried the same thing with a cheap tape meant for paper... and got a better result) I pressed the pieces back together and they stuck WEAKLY once more. Ah! I thought... but THIS adhesive is supposed to be "WASH PROOF" (and that's really why I bought it - at so much greater cost) so I just held the two lightly stuck pieces under the cold tap to simulate a cool wash (kinda) and they almost fell apart! (the adhesive is almost completely useless! I let the two pieces dry out for a few hours and the weak adhesion returned... but this is just NOT ENOUGH to do what is expected of it. (anything washed with it attached is likely to shift position and end up lightly stuck in another position) For the record: I did not use it "synthetic, stretchy fabric" as package says it is not meant for such use. I used it on natural COTTON. Maybe I have a faulty batch... but I intend to ask for a refund.

I bought this so I could make embroidery patches. The only downside is the amount of sheets you get, the size of the sheets you get and how much you pay for them. The sheets themselves are fantastic, the adhesive is super strong especially for embroidered patches. It is completely durable in the washing machine and sticks like the most powerful superglue you’ve ever accidentally touched. It leaves no residue, it doesn’t stain surfaces if you accidentally stick it to something unintentional, but it is hard to get off, which at the end of the day is the main goal. I wish the sheets were larger I feel they would go a long way in that regard, and the amount you get per package I wish there were more. If you’re making a big project these are kind of a pain in the butt to use, but they work great just the same. This little patch that I made for a friend has been through the washing machine twice and he’s holding up quite nicely. I definitely recommend this product if you’re looking to make patches or little projects that will go on fabric.
