    I am thinking we will use the bias tape to make fan sew arc on with... also to make lovely lines on the fan shape...

    All I have is a glue stick so that will be what I'll use today. I may leave some to do tomorrow and see if I can find that other spray. It's be easier to use, I'm sure.

    Did we get a list of this stuff we were suppose to have on hand? I must have missed something in my preparations. I didn't see template plastic or glue. Hmph! I used freezer paper for the templates and it worked just fine. Whew! Okay, on to the glue. Hope my glue sticks are still moist.

    I know I said this before - but I am going to have a break now - I am will work on it later today and over the weekend... I am very excited though to see how it turns out... make sure you post your photos of the nearly finished top.

    The requirements were on the first page of installment one-the second page had the cutting... I am going to trial a glue stick I have at home here - I have quilt basting spray -would that work?

    I don't know of any reason why basting spray wouldn't work. It washes out doesn't it?
    I just realized I probably glanced at the supply list and thought, "Oh, the usual stuff, sewing machine, etc." and didn't read the whole list. Oh, well. I'm doing fine so far! :shock: Well, kind of. I'm on a break for my back right now. It said it was rest time and so I shall!

    Yvonne,

    I might be mistaken (being that I am quite the newbie) but it is ok if the basting spray washes out because it will be quilted onto the fabric by that time.

    Please tell me if I am wrong, because I am using the spray.

    In the directions she says to, " and spray lightly with the 505 Spray, or dot with water soluble glue stick." That 505 is a basting spray so I'd say you're good to go. I have no idea. I've never used that stuff. But I will some day soon. :lol:
