Unhappy Has This Ever Happened to You ????

It all started with a piece of fleece that puckered between two rows of quilting on the back of a snuggie garment. The fleece stretched while turning the fabric to machine quilt and it was only getting worse trying to re-quilt. So I decided to slit the fleece, cut out the extra fabric and fabric glue closed. I purchased the only brand of
liquid permanent fabric adhesive Joann's carries. It claims to permanently glue fabrics, trims, craft projects and to be fully washable and dryable by machine after waiting 24 hours to dry. I guess I went wrong when I waited
48 hours before washing because when I opened the washer the glued seams where all open!!! I dried the garment and when completely dry I will have to hand sew the seams closed to fix my "lesson hard learned." DON'T TRY MACHINE QUILTING FLEECE or FIX ANY MISTAKES...
