Dritz Original Liquid Stitch, 2 fl oz

This stuff is outstanding

Love this glue! For a short person like me buying pants is a nightmare (all of them are too long). With the liquid stitch I can shorten my pants in a few minutes. It's super easy to use on jeans (I simply mark the desired length, iron it to make an edge, then put the glue in), and it will work on any thicker fabric. For a very thin fabric the glue soaks through the pores in the fabric, so it's not suitable, But good news: if you mess up or you realize the glue goes through the fabric just rinse it right away with water, and it won't leave any marks! Once it's cured it will withstand many many washes. Great product!

I used it to repair a hole in my Allbirds Tree Dasher. I wear those every day for miles - and did not want to keep seeing my socks sticking out of a hole near the toes! The hole seems to be closed - but it does look like a permanent wet spot now. The repair is noticeable if you look at it, but really, nobody is going to be examining my shoes closely during a dog walk, so it served its purpose - and will hopefully hold up next time I wash these sneakers. But may be this glue is better for repairs inside a garment (e.g. pockets) or under another layer of fabric, where any wet looking stains won't be so visible.

The stitching on my coat pocket liner gave way creating a hole where everything I put in it ended up in the coat liner. I was going to try and sew the pocket but that proved to be nearly impossible because I couldn't get enough of the liner out of the pocket to fix the whole thing. This left me with two choices, find something to glue it together or throw the coat out. As I've never used fabric glue before I went with this one because it had good reviews and was relativley inexpensive. The glue was easy to apply and within 30 seconds or so, it had adhered sufficently enough where I no longer had to hold the two pieces of cloth together. At that point I was able to hang the coat and give the glue 24 hours to completely cure. Rather than being left with a hard seam as I would have if I had used super glue, the seam remains somewhat plyable (a good thing) and well bonded. I've been wearing the coat now for about 3 weeks and the pocket liner is as good as if it had been stitched. So would I recommend it? Based on my experience I would. I really wish that they sold an even smaller bottle however as I suspect it will take me years (many) to use it all up at which time I'm sure it will have hardened in the bottle.

Better than anything else I have tried!

The. best. fabric glue.

I'm no seamster so this is a big help in adjusting the length of pant legs. I cannot seem to find casual slacks that will fit both my waist and my rather short legs. The solution is to fold over the hem the fasten, taking about an inch off the length and Liquid Stitch works perfectly for this. My only criticism is that the squeeze bottle is incredibly hard to open. But once that hurdle is surmounted, clear sailing.' UPDATE: If I thought it difficult getting out of the container initially, you should have seen me when I went back to do some more. After the container is opened, this glue becomes almost impossible to work with. Finially got a channel opened with a variety of sharp tools, and had to squeeze so hard even then that it was also oozing out through the threads on the top and dripping all over. I finished up what I had to do today, threw the rest away and ordered a fresh container for for the next use. It sticks just fine but it is very difficult to work with. They need a better dispenser unless the plan is to have customers do what I did, keep buying fresh for each use.

I'm a boondocker, a retired guy who lives in a bus to save money. Part of saving money is repairing clothes instead of replacing them, and I've been using Liquid Stitch for years to do that. It doesn't last forever, but if I glue a pocket or a belt loop back on or glue a patch over a torn spot, it holds up through a lot of use and many washings. As with any other glue, you need to apply the right amount and clamp the pieces together until the glue sets. I still keep some sewing gear around for buttons and such, but I use Liquid Stitch for all other cloth repairs. I'd recommend it to a friend.

Works well as part of procedure for fixing old camera bellows.

Excellent

...but be aware that if you use it to glue more than a tiny area, and it soaks through, it will darken the fabric when it sets. Very effective though.

I craft with felt and I have tried lots of products. This is by far the best.
