Larry, You might try some of the "specialized" fabric glues from a good fabric store. A great many of them are thicker/much stickier than the "PVC-E" that PP Co. sells. I think that "Aileen's Tcaky Glue" is absolutely superb for action felts. Thick. Water soluble. One step application.Easily removable for future restorations. I've never had any trouble with it and have heard no good reason yet not to use it. It also does not over-absorb into the felt, leading to unwanted ridges/rigidity.
