A sweet quilt. A variant I have tried is to dilute the glue then paint it on with a large artist's brush

I forgot to mention before that when I use the glue, I iron it to dry it out as I go along. That way there's no waiting! I don't use poly batting though, so the batting might melt with poly��

Didn't know you could do it that way... I always thought glue basting was done with the spray basting glue. That's what I have used and it's wonderful for holding layers together without pins!

I dry iron the quilt to set the glue. It works great and you can work on the quilt immediately.

nice and bright, good luck with the glue basting

Thanks!
I bought a low loft poly batting, as this will be just a light throw for her to cover up with when she comes over.
The iron didn't hurt it at all.
If you are on the fence about glue basting, i say try it. Go with whatever works best for you.

If you like glue basting, you'll LOVE spray basting.. I use 505 and it's changed my whole outlook on finishing a quilt. I'll never ever pin or sew baste again!!

I like the quilt top! Very nice work - everything matches perfectly. I use fabric glue stick for lots of things - zippers, paper piecing, basting. There is also a temporary basting spray sold at quilt shops and JoAnn's you might like. No drying time with the glue sticks or sprays.

The glue lines wash right out as long as you are using "school glue". My first glued project was way over glued and I thought it would not all wash out, but it did in just a regular laundry load, with half the soap. (I only used half the soap because it really was not "dirty". It worked fine.)

It is going to be a pretty quilt when finished.
