What about washing felt? Will the colors bleed? What will happen to the felt if it gets washed? Thanks, Judi

Lori, I showed your question to Adrienne Smitke and this is what she had to say: “Since I don’t know what she’s fusing the felt to (Fabric? More felt? Paper?) I’m not exactly sure how to answer her question. Also, I’m not sure if she means fusible web when she refers to paper backed adhesive, as that would be my first recommendation. It’s quite cheap – usually $2 – $4 per yard where I buy it, depending on the brand. I would not recommend using a glue stick on a porous material like felt, as I don’t think it would create a lasting bond. While not a fabric glue, my go-to craft glue is Aleene’s, because it’s non-toxic, but again, since I don’t know what she’s gluing the felt to, I can’t vouch for how well it will work. I have heard that Aleene’s also makes a specific fabric glue (though I haven’t yet tried it myself), so it might be worth hunting that down. If she can visit a general craft store like JoAnn’s they may be able to help her figure out the best fabric glue for her specific project.”

Hope that helps!

I am just starting to us felt for a project. Unfortunately for this project sewing won’t be an option. Can you recommend an adhesive that will work well on felt? I have heard about paper backed adhesive but it would be too expensive for my project. (I am making a bunny project as a fund raiser for a Rabbit Rescue). Fabric glue and a glue stick have been mentioned on other sites – what do you think of them?

I appreciate any help you can offer.

Thanks,

Lori Mancuso

I LOVE felt! I only buy white felt, then I color it with Lindy’s Stamp Gang starburst stains. It makes the felt a little more stiff, but it also adds any color I want, as well as a beautiful glitter too! (That doesn’t rub off!) Great post, thanks for the info, and I love stars too!
