Any idea how to get a spot of iron on adhesive out of velour fabric? I managed to get it on the front of my project, I don't want to put oil on it.

What about an ice cube, it works for gum. Should not damage velour. Place cube for a few minutes on spot and then gently rub the glue off. Hope it will help!

Let us know if the freezer works! Sounds like the less possibilty of damage.

sounds like you got some good answers, but if it was me I think I'd go with Carolyn's freezer sugg. first.
Good luck!
