I took the plunge Sunday it works great
Basted the ful quilt, but not the borders, never thought of that, but will be considering it next quilt. |
I needed more School Glue, so I went looking at Walmart last Thursday. I found the bottle for 34 cents, and Elmer's glue was about 74 cents. Then I looked more closely at the bottles. The 34 cent bottle was made in China; Elmer's glue is made in the USA. Which would you choose? ? ? ?

Picked up a bottle of Elmers School Glue last week. It sat on my desk staring at me so I finally got brave, took my quilt that still needed borders off the design wall and glued the first border on. NEVER, EVER, will I pin a border again. Oh my gosh, it was so nice to sew a border on and not get stuck with a pin in the process! Thanks to everyone for posting about the glue!! :thumbup:

I haven't tried this yet, but enjoy hearing about the experiences of others. Maybe I will try this on my next quilt.

I used Elmers School Glue recently on a small wall hanging and loved it. It held nicely while I did some basic quilting (I don't do fancy, yet) and it worked out quite well. I'll use it again because I don't like pinning and the fumes from the sprays are nasty.

Do you water the glue down? What kind of a bottle do you put this in to apply? Thanks for the help.

I have been using Elmer's glue so far, does anyone know if the glue you can get at the doller store is just as good?
