Abstract
The invention contemplates a flocked fabric and method wherein flock is adhered by a heat-cured flock adhesive to a substrate fabric and wherein a heat-sublimable dye is contained as a component of the adhesive and/or as preprint of the substrate fabric, the adhesive having a curing time and temperature at which such dye substantially sublimes. Various examples are given to achieve different selectively available color patterns and contrasts, as well as different selectively available surface textures in the dyed product.
