Default Sticky Question

What sort of glue do you recommend for gluing PC to fabric?

E600 doesn't like porous stuff and has a tendancy to let go after a
while (like after stuffing a doll), and white glue (Tacky Glue, Elmer's,
etc.) doesn't like the PC.

You want to stick your personal Computor to fabric!!
Why can't you use a cushion cover like every one else?

Have you tried one of the gel-type 'super' glues?

Can't say that I have. I can't keep the stuff around; I use super glue
so infrequently that the bottles harden up before I get around to using
them the second time. However, I suppose it's worth a try.

Try this with E600 - eyeball the area where you want your PC. Apply the E600
using wax paper and really smoosh it into the fabric, it likes porous better
than smooth but is thick and needs to be smooshed in. Let that dry.

Get your PC and apply a bit of E600 to its back. Attach that to the already
dried E600 spot on the clothing.

As a side note, rouh up the back of the clay too.

I'm gluing polyclay faces to stuffed dolls. I'd be afraid of starting a
fire, and the fiberfill stuffing wouldn't take the heat, regardless.

We bake polyclay nested in polyfil type battings all the time, and the
base fabric of your doll might just take the heat of the oven as well.
According to the info on this site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ironing
and then converting the Celsius to F. it looks like most fabrics could
stand the temps polyclay is cured at.

Okay, I'll do a test project.
