Thanks for the tip Miss Butterfly, I know the evils of spray adhesive. I tend to shy away from using it on lighter fabrics. Most of my quilts are made for my family so light colors don't go well.
I had an Upholsterer in my shop use red glue on a white vinyl car seat, it bled pink. Needless to say the client wasn't happy and my Upholsterer was out of a job. I ended up eating the job, what profit I made went for replacement vinyl.

I ran out of Sulky 2000K and DH got me what he could find, June Taylor. I worked, but really stinks!!!! I then got 505 which was recommended by a teacher of a class I took. I actually prefer the Sulky 2000K, it is totally odorless and holds well, it is also supposed to be environmentally friendly. However it is hard to find and too expensive with shipping to get online.

I do not like the June taylor for you have to do it outside or it is bad... lots of ventalationg required... so might as well be outside. I used 505 1 time and didn't like it...
I LOVE the kk2000 by Sulky of America. The new green can is so nicebut still using older cans. It may be a samller can but the bigs cans do not have any more spray in them just more replent. KK 2000 also completely disapears by it's self , dosent stick on the needle and if you want to take it out faster just use ONLY a warm iron, NEVER steam or you will have a stickie mess. I have used KK2000 for crafts and quilting for years. I buy at JoAnns with 50%off sales.

I use it on machine embroidery blocks and a can lasts a long time. JoAnns around here doesn't carry it. If yours does use your 50% coupon. A local quilt shop orders it for me.
