I sprayed three quilts, 75x75 largest, with the small can. I have some left, but need more for two WIPs.

I buy Sullivans, twice the size for half the price.

I have used Elmer's water soluable spray glue. Much cheaper than the 505 I have used.

Try Wal-mart.It may be a different brand, but it still works.

The reason I have stuck with 505 is that it holds. Three months later I can quilt my sandwich and don't have to worry about it moving. Well worth the price. I just object to that darn high shipping charge. Our LQS usually sells it around $13.50 and doesn't charge extra freight, but they are out right now and I want to finish something before Thanksgiving.

There was an earlier thread about this and some one said you can order it from Walmart.com. If you do site-to-store, you won't pay shipping charges, but it may take several days to get it.

Or if you have a Ben Franklin crafts, you might find it there. We have a BF and it is $11.99 a can. Which reminds me that I need to pick up another can today.
