Are these products used the same as spray starch?
Just starting with basic quilting and I see there is a lot to learn! That retail site is a great place to shop for bargains I believe, thanks!

I love the 505...hate the price, but have to admit it is worth every penny. I love jhittle's too...one of my fav on line spots!

Joanofpa, these products are adhesives. You would use spray starch to give fabrics some hmmf to be firm which makes it much easier to piece.

505, June Tailor, Sulky, these products are all basting sprays and spray adhesive. Basically, it's glue in a can. It simplifies the way you prepare your quilt sandwich for quilting. I read a thread about it once, tried it and I love it. I hand quilt so it takes me a long time after it's basted before it's done, but I haven't had any problems with yellowing.

You spray the adhesive onto your batting and then put your quilt top on top. Then, I flip it over, spray the batting on the other side and then lay on the backing. There are a lot of ladies here that spray, but don't pin. I don't trust it that much. So I spray, and pin very sparingly.

I can't find the 505 spray or EQ6 on hittles site. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

cjaye44, Most of the time they are 40% off. Check them because sometimes they do have 50% coupons. I received one that was good until Feb. 20 and it had a 50% off coupon. We don't have a JoAnns close. So I have been shopping at the website. And they had a promo code available for 50% off. But don't know if this is normal or random. I just wait until the 50% off to order a roll of batting. The shipping was $5.99. You can't hardly drive anywhere for that anymore. But I would never order fabric online. I want to see and feel the fabric. Making sure it is a good quality fabric. The picture may show you the print and color, somewhat. But quality is the most important and that you can't tell from the picture.
Check out the website and see what kind of coupons you can use when you order. Happy Quilting :)

I am missing something! I went to jhittle. . . and could not find the 505 nor the block to sign up for the newsletter. Please give this grey-haired quilter some assistance. Thanks. Suz

I am not sure if this link will work or not but here goes:

It did work! Go almost to the bottom of the page and you will see both 505 and KK2000.

Our Walmart carries it but it has gone up to $9.99 a can--still cheaper than most other places and I find it works just fine. Have used it for a long long time.
