I saw on a you tube, a helpful tip on making your corners turn out almost perfect.. It was using Elmer,s glue with a fine metal tip.. I have went to several LQS looking for the tip that fits on the glue bottle. They did not know of one that fit on a glue bottle.It was a Sharon Schamber video. I went to her site and could not find it there. I e-mailed her but as of yet have not gotten a reply. It has been 21/2 weeks. I have done a search, got a lot of different types of tip but they are not the she had..Thank you all for help.

Me too...sounds like a "must have" to me :-)

Do a Google search for "ultra fine tip glue applicator"

Dozens of hits. Here are a couple, the descriptions mention use for quilting. Are these the right ones?:

My little Elmers Glue bottle has a rounded tip, but if I barely loosen it, just a little glue comes out. For the Alene's OK to Wash It, I did purchase some metal tips online (no store had any including craft stores). None of the three fit on to stay. Someone suggested taking apart a mechanical pencil and using its plastic tip. I had to tape it on but it worked well! Now I've learned just to make the tiniest hole in glue bottles and use an old SM needle to put in it between uses.

If you really want to try the metal tips, PM me and they're yours for the price of postage - letter size envelope.

Wow, thanks for the information

In order to get the long metal tip I ended up buying the glue at a LQS. You can find short metal tips in craft stores, but I wanted the long metal tip. Good luck.
Forgot to mention you need to look in the decorative painting departments at craft stores.

The ones Sharon Schamber uses are out of stock on her website:

I've been reusing an old Roxanne glue bottle.

Thanks for the Joann's link, I'll check it out next time I'm there. Michael's didn't have anything that was ultra-fine.

Try Michael's if you've got one nearby. In the aisle with the acrylic paints is where I found a package of 2 small, empty bottles with fine point metal tips. I just squeeze my glue into those bottles.
