I never use Heat & Bond. It's not meant for quilting, but for crafts...will gum up the needle something fierce. I always use Wonder Under.

Try Mr. Clean's 'Magic Eraser'.

If you cannot remove the gooey stuff, I suggest putting the letters on a light background , put letters on this then hem with decorative stitches to make it look like a picture frame and sew on to quilt to hide spot.

These are all great ideas I will remember for when I get into trouble, replacing the piece is the best idea, except if you have already sandwiched the quilt and have quilted much of the quilt that would be awful. I wonder if you could carefully snip out the piece and hand sew the piece back in hiding the stitches as much as possible, would that work?

Alcohol on a cotton ball or q-tip.

I prefer steam a seam..
|
I believe an applique, perhaps a large bordered rectangle, and re-applique his name inside the rectangle. It would frame off the name nicely.

when my kids were small and stickers would go though the wash and the remains stayed on their clothes I used rubbing alcohol to get it out. This worked well.

What a mess, does anyone have any ideas on how I can remove the adhesive from the quilt! I re-traced the letter N and the #1 the correct way, but the adhesive is still visible! Thank goodness it is only two characters.
