Loose change made a hole in the pocket of my jeans
I tried:1) Putting the change in the other pocket, I then had holes in both pockets2) Bought "Iron on" pockets.. I would link, if they weren't completely useless.3) Bought budget sewing machine, to stitch the pockets over the hole at the bottom - it was useless.4) Used this glue, to stick some patches I made from cutting up an old apron, to the outside of my pockets... and it well worked perfectly.Long and short of it is, this stuff is going to be a lifelong member of the "kitchen-useful-drawer".Pretty easy and non-messy to use. Has gloopy consistency of copydex, if you remember that. Put it on both pieces of fabric you with to bond and rub it in a bit (doesn't seem to leach through, but maybe don't use this if there's a chance you don't wish to make a mark on the other side - or at least test).Leave it a minute or so, and it dries out a bit and gives a very 'tacky' surface.Push two bits together (still will feel damp) and leave overnight.The next day, the two bits of fabric will be welded together. "Welded" is the right word, as I'd overcut the patches, assuming the edges would be weak but after some increasingly vigorous picking at the edge to see if it'd give... nope.Been through the wash a couple of times at 60, been ironed, and still - "welded", but still flexible.Just a pleasingly satisfying product, that does what it sets out to do.#edit - after reading the other reviews, the rubber applicator is indeed a bit rubbish.Idea is that you screw this on and use it to smear the glue into the material (which is important). Instructions tell you to rinse in water after use, but it's not really 'rinsable' as the bore is so narrow, the glue just sits there.First time I used it, I did clean it (fill end with water, and then just blow down it, forcing water through and clearing the residual glue). Next time, I just ignored it and rubbed the glue into the fabric with my finger (which cleans much more easily).Recommend that any user just ignores/bins the nozzle and just uses it as a reminder that you want to rub the glue in a bit, rather than leaving it on the fabric surface.

Works well but nozzle's a faff
The glue works well but the nozzle is too chunky for delicate work - at first, not enough glue would come out, then a big blob fell on the fabric I was gluing, leaving a mark that didn't wash off. I ended up applying it with a matchstick, which worked fine. It'd have been better to have a pen-shaped nozzle to direct the glue, but otherwise I was happy with the product.

Does the job!
Smells a bit funky (think Copydex...) but is super quick at sticking, and very strong. So much so I would say be quick when you do it, as it like fabric super glue. Quite runny so be careful it doesn't soak through your fabric (as I did) and then does leave a white mark on any unintended surface. When you pierce the tube it oozes out right away as it is quite liquid. With the right preparations though, this stuff is good and sticks really well.

Be careful, it dries yellow
I bought this to try and glue rhinestones to denim. It didn’t really work as you need a decent amount for it to stick, and with that the glue spreads over the edges and then dries yellow so doesn’t look good, and doesn’t stick that well either.So then I tried glueing a trim of poms to the denim instead and this does work well. But a tip is to apply the glue to the denim only, not the trim, as I found the glue seeps through the trim and, again, dries yellow. If you can find ways of glueing so it doesn’t dry showing the glue, this product is good for glueing fabric to fabric.Lastly, the applicator isn’t great whilst on the tube, so I used it separately and put the glue in the outside and used it as a spreader.

Great glue, rubbish tube.
Perfect for "sewing" tricky corners and time saving for large areas.BUTThe tube is made of foil so it can tear (note: my disability prohibits me from being rough/strong but it still tore)The nozzle blocks approx every 30 mins. Two pins in the nozzle slows the drying but it will still block. I just can't work fast enough for the tube!I don't know why it gave instructions for "next time". I had to use as much as I could in one use because there was no way it could be used again because the nozzle and the neck of the tube became so blocked.Maybe I had a defective tube. Maybe there is some secret method to using the glue.I have bought more, because it is a great glue but have I planned each tube as a "one-use".Update.Accidental over use (caused by the horrible tube and useless applicator) has caused the glue to seep through and mark the outside.Had I known I would not have ordered more, which are late i.e. after the lastest estimated delivery time.Consequently I've downgraded my rating to 1 star

Worth your little money.
The product itself is quite good. It's easy to use. I used it to glue my fabrics but only to a bit part of the fabric, so I can't say if it can work well with much space of fabric. However, it worked well with mine. The customer service is great that they got worried if the customer would be confused by the photo on Amazon so they enclosed the letter to explain that they have changed the package.

Perfect for applying Cubs / Scouts / Brownies / Guides badges
I bought this so fit my son's Cubs badges on to his uniform as I just could not be bothered sewing them all on and I have to say it worked perfectly.My advice is to not use too much glue as if you get it on the fabric where you don't want it to be it does not wash off. I learned this the hard way haha

Good fabric glue
I brought this fabric glue at the start of July 2017 to hem trousers and some voile curtains that I had cut to size. It has worked really well and the hems on both have stayed in tact, even on the trousers that have been washed several times since. The only slight downfall to this glue, is that it is a little runny and the amount that I needed to apply to the fabric for it to stick, caused it to go through to the other side of the fabric. (I did try applying a smaller amount and the fabric I was gluing was polyester/viscose mix trousers & 100% polyester curtains). It was not terribly noticeable though, and so overall I am happy with this product.
