Spray Basting????
#2
spray basting is great! Instead of pinning the sandwich together and then doing a running stitch to stablize the entire thing..you spray between each layer with the spray. The sandwich doesn't slip around. I use it for my longarm quilting..I don't attach the top or the batting on the front bars. There are several brands out there. I am parcel to Sullivans quilt Basting Spray. Happy Quilting..

I've been using it lately and to me, it's the best thing since sliced bread! I use the June Tailor from Joann's, it's like $12.99 a can so I use my 40% off coupons for it. The can says it will do 3 queen sized quilts, I haven't tested that yet, just using it on everything. I don't think I'll ever use pins again!

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the explanation. So if I understand it the spray keeps the sandwich together so you can quilt it?
Can you give me the name of some sprays so that I can look it up in the UK?

I love it!, I have a tendency to make "too Big" quilts, and this is perfect... spay it on the backing, apply the batting... if it has a wrinkle just pull it up in that area and re-apply... when you have it like you want... spray the batting and apply the quilt top, I do it in rows so that it's not so apt to wrinkle and bunch.... NO MORE PINS!

and I used it for another problem too... I had a handicapped person who was to stay at my home, but with my flooring it was so slippery with the rug... so I sprayed the RUG bottom... it worked, and it wasn't so hard to clean up after they left... LOVE it!

I made a table runner and tried an idea. I diluted Elmer's School glue just enough for it to spray and used that to baste it. I pressed it dry and it worked fine and it washes out completely and no fumes. It will save the basting spray to use on bigger projects.
