Being a military family we move a LOT and when we lived in housing I did this ALL THE TIME. It does work very well.
You do NOT have to hold it in place until it dries, heavier fabrics may tend to peel off though. I did denim once it was harder than cotton.
It should not unravel.
You can also use this technique for the appliques, been there too!
