Subject: what glue have you tried? E6000 is much stronger than other glues. What about using a safety pin? It will be hidden by the cape, and can go through just the top layers of fabric on the dress

In reply to: thanks for ideas! 's message, "Suggestions? We bought an off the rack dress that came with a shawl that had velcro sewn to it but the matching piece was not sewn on the dress yet. The glue will not hold it on the dress and getting a regular needle through it doesn't work. Do I need to take it to a seamstress? Are there other ways to affix the velcro to the dress?" on Monday, January 02, 01:03:59pm

Yikes, I wouldn't trust E6000 to hold on velcro for a cape! If you can't hand sew it, and don't want to find a seamstress (a sewing machine usually works better than a hand needle on velcro) I would also suggest switching to snaps. The 1" snaps work quite well. (NT)--Monday, January 02, 05:10:57pm
