[Nfb-krafters-korner] Fabric Glue?

[qubit]

That's interesting -- I have 2 coasters I did for Terry's class and want to 
cover the back sides with something, but I don't know what to use. Would 
felt be appropriate for that? It is just messy enough that I want to cover 
it up so as not to be confused with the fronts of the coasters.

Oh, but the name "Tacky glue" sounds a bit, "tacky" -- does it look good 
when you're done? assuming you don't get globs of it on the outside?

What besides felt would be good for covering the underside of a coaster? I 
was thinking of something rubberized so it wouldn't slide.
Happy krafting.

There is 2 types of Tacky glue for crafting.  One is in a bottle that  you
can squeeze and it is thicker then Elmer's.  This dries clear.   The other
is Tacky glue that comes in a jar.  It is more like a tooth paste 
thickness.
 I have used the jar glue to paste felt onto plastic  canvas.  It works
very well and dries clear.I put the paste on the plastic  canvas and then 
onto
the fabric.  I have used my finger to rub the glue  from the jar onto
things.  I have used a toothpick if I am working on small  items.  I have 
even
used my glucose test strips to spread it on.  I  let the kids use the 
glucose
test strips.  You need to kinda peel it off  your fingers if you don't use a
similar tool.  Popsycle sticks work well,  too.
