Abstract: A method of making an applique by printing a release adhesive upon a release sheet; flocking flock through an open section of a barrier into the adhesive to result in at least two patterns arranged to form a predetermined design adhered to the release sheet; applying a binding adhesive to free ends of the flock; transferring at least one of the predetermined designs of flock to a substrate material; and affixing the substrate material; with said predetermined design of flock to an article. An applique composed of substrate material adapted to be affixed to an article; and flock having end portions coated with a binder adhered in a predetermined design to the substrate material. A article composed of a surface area; a substrate material affixed to the surface area; a layer of binding adhesive on the substrate; and flock having end portions adhering to the layer of binding adhesive to form a predetermined design on the substrate material.

Abstract: Plush textured multicolored flock transfers are obtained which have the appearance of a direct flocked article and the manufacturing and application advantages of a flock transfer. The method of manufacture includes applying sequentially to an adhesive coated base sheet different colored flocks which can be greater than 0.3 mm long through predetermined areas of masked screens.
