How To Attach Velcro To Fabric Without Glue: Step-By-step If you prefer a more traditional approach, you can use a sewing needle and thread to attach the Velcro to your fabric. This method allows for a more secure and permanent bond. Using a strong thread that matches the color of your fabric, sew through the holes or slits on the Velcro strips and the fabric, creating a tight stitch.If you anticipate that the fabric with attached Velcro will be subjected to heavy use or significant stress, it may be worth considering reinforcements. This can include adding extra stitches when sewing, using additional fabric glue, or even applying a patch of fabric over the area to provide extra durability.

After a while, you may find the Velcro on your fabric loses its secure bond. Usually, this happens when lint or debris gathers on the Velcro and stops the hooks from latching onto the loops. Allow to Dry: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for drying and curing times. This is crucial to ensure that the adhesive forms a strong bond. Hook : the “hook” side of Velcro is the rougher, more rigid side of the material. “Hook” is the side that catches onto the “loops”. Clean the Fabric: Clean the fabric surface where you plan to sew the Velcro. This helps ensure a clean and secure attachment. When it comes time to clean your fabric with attached Velcro, it’s important to do so gently to avoid damaging the Velcro or the fabric. Hand washing is often the best option, as it allows you to control the pressure and avoid any rough agitation that could cause the Velcro to come loose.
