I love, love, love BP but the price is high, never find it on sale. I mixed mine w/ water & ended up with black looking beads in bottom of bottle. Learned -- always used distilled water! You can also get it unscented.

Has anyone found a perfect mist spray bottle? Everyone I have tried I always get big drops with the mist.

It is the only "starch" that I use, but I dilute mine with water by 50%. I also buy mine by the gallon as A) it's cheaper and B) I know I'll use the whole gallon eventually.

LOVE best press! the flavors are enchanting!! worth the money, sometimes i add a little water to make it go further.

I agree it is wonderful. I have tried many brands but alway come back to this. A little pricey but definitely worth it.

Thanks for the tip to buy on Amazon. Never thought of that! :)

I bought the first I have ever used yesterday. I wish the shop had carried the unscented version because the scent is way too strong.
I am going to be the dissenter here because I honestly cannot tell it makes any difference other than the odor. I will stick with starch before cutting and my spray bottle of water when pressing seams. JMHO |
I'm a fairly 'new', self taught quilter and would like for someone to tell me about using starch while quilting. When, how and why do you use it?
Thanks! |
GJ, I use it when I press the fabric before cutting. It makes it stiffer and easier to maintain a straight line when cutting and sewing.
Sometimes I will use it again when I finish a top before I put it on the machine. Just depends on how much the fabric has been handled. Really helps minimize the chance of sewing in wrinkles. |
