What kind of glue should I use?

Thanks, Judith

Hi Judith, 450 glue is best quick dry glue but due to odour need to use outdoors or with fume cupboard ventilation. UHU glue is next best but these are not always found locally. Enquire at a craft or haberdashery store. PVA based glues do work but slower and not as strong a hold. Any glue is messy so use a pin to apply rather than squeeze and pour method. A great tip used by many top milliners is add a spot of glue to a stitch on underside to ensure it never comes undone :)
