Troubleshooting

Felt edges fraying after cutting

Ensure you are using a sharp cutting tool. For intricate designs or edges that may fray, consider using a small amount of fabric glue along the cut edge or incorporating a satin stitch when sewing.

Adhesive not sticking well

Ensure the felt surface is clean and dry. For strong bonds, use a suitable fabric glue or hot glue applied evenly. Allow adequate drying time for fabric glues.

Color transfer from felt to other materials

While unlikely with quality felt, it's advisable to test a small piece if using light-colored fabrics with intense dark red felt, especially if prolonged contact or moisture is involved. Washable felt items separately on the first wash.
