Janet Pizaroon Sep 12, 2017Try putting ice on it to harden the glue enough to peel off or the opposite place a piece of fabric on top and use a iron to heat the glue to be able to peel off.-

Johnavallance82on Sep 12, 2017Not sure you can? Could you Use Fabric Pens and Make a design around it? or Patch over it........![Rhonda S]()
Rhonda Son Sep 12, 2017Funny. I did that around an ink stain in college 40 years ago! May go with that flow.

Rhonda Son Sep 14, 2017I was wearing them. The way I was sitting allowed a little fold of fabric, and of course that was where it dripped! I brushed it with my hand while it was still warm, but cool enough not to leave a mark. *l* I also thought of my decorated jeans as my hippie jeans.

Chubby58on Sep 12, 2017Just a thought: Try putting an ice cube over the glue and see if you can get it to harden and scrape off with a flat edge razor blade. If not try a blow dryer or heat gun and use a plastic putty knife and scrape it off.![Rhonda S]()
Rhonda Son Sep 12, 2017Thanks...it is actually in the fabric. I don't have a heat gun but can attempt with hair dryer. Maybe blot what gets hot enough to melt.

Rhonda Son Sep 14, 2017I'm going to try to blot it with paper towels as I press it with a hot iron to get as much as I can out, and then if I think it is too noticeable, do a little embroidery or fabric paint to make the flaw into a feature. Wish I had gotten to it sooner, but it is what it is. Thank you all for the suggestions, and for the quick trip down memory lane!
