Does anyone have any tips on spray basting your quilt sandwich on a wall? Going to try it for the first time and am a little nervous.

I do it and love it!! It saves my knees and back from so much pain. I was able to do 8 lap quilts in a few hours.

I did last night and to my surprise could not find the June Tailor Quilt basting spray!
My mistake here was I used regular hair spray and some embroidery spray at the same time and when it was time to quilt, my thread kept breaking every 5 inches. But I finished what I started. When I take photos, I will post them on here.

Whatever spray you do decide to use, do NOT over-spray.
