1. it shouldn't but you should have supper glued it or sewed it
2. It might not the first time but after a while it will
3. It probably will. I don't recommend drying it as this may remelt the glue and cause the patch to come off. Also I would wash it on cold. The other option is to superglue the patch.
4. it shouldnt.. after a while it'll have its wear & tear i think tho
5. no
6. No, use a fabric glue instead. I've tried hot glue and it doesn't work, sorry. I hope this advise helps! Happy gluing!
7. Can you use an iron patch instead? That really works. The hot glue will loosed after a few washes.
8. use wonder webb... its an iron on adhesive.
9. Not in warm or cold water, but the dryer, yes it will make a big mess. :-)
10. I'd suggest going to your local walmart, go into the sewing section and ask the person on staff there what you want to do. He or she will probably tell you to buy this iron on stuff (I forget the name). You just cut it out the size of the patch and then apply iron heat. It's pretty neat, cheap and easy AND it holds! :) I dont think hot glue would last very long, if even one wash.
