Cotton Fabric Refresh a simple cotton top by adding a decorative lace trim around the neckline with Aleene’s Quick Dry Tacky Glue. Just apply a thin line of glue, press the trim into place and let it dry for a pretty finished look without having to sew a single stitch. Lace Lace patchwork is a great way to add a delicate touch to heavy fabrics like denim. But you don't want to use a fabric glue that will ruin your lace either! Your lace is in luck with Aleene's Super Fabric Adhesive. It's tough enough for patching jeans, but gentle enough to use with lace. This glue is permanent, flexible and washable too!

It's a fun and easy way to take some color with you everywhere you go! Patches for Repairs Patches are a great way to mend tears and give extra life to jeans.

Patchwork Flower Hoodie Turn a plain hoodie into a wearable garden with fabric flower petals made from your favorite scraps! It's a fun way to use up leftover fabric while adding a pop of color and texture to something you already own. Cut petal shapes from cotton, felt, or even old t-shirts, then layer them into blooms. Bond everything in place with Aleene's Fusible Web, a no-sew iron-on adhesive that holds petals securely through wear and washing. What no-sew hack are you creating with Aleene's?
