I think it sounds like a fabulous idea - thank you.

That is such a great idea. I have a medium size quilt I have been stalling on for two reasons - can't think of a quilting design and didn't want to do my regular pin basting and have to FMQ around the pins or remove them and break my "zone" such that it is (I am far from expert). Will definitely try this.

Oh, I LOVE the way you think!!!! I've gotta remember that trick! :thumbup:

I love this method. I saw Sharon's video too. I use the school glue & no problems.

Spraying the watered down Elmers Glue also sounds like a great idea I'll have to try. But does the quilt sandwich have to be ironed? I don't understand why it needs to be ironed.

Great tip. May have to try this in the future. Thanks for the heads-up.

I've used Elmers for years. Someone asked me to discribe the process I use in this thread. http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...t180790-2.html Post #51
The glue washes out just fine with no staining or issues. Just be sure not to glob on the glue or you will break your needle. |
Great ideas for smaller projects...maybe worth a try on a UFO that you're not so fond of.
|
Thanks for the tip will have to try it. Pinning or basting can take a long time and this will save some.
