Thanks for the heads up...I will be on the lookout....

Yes!! That Elmer's Glue Pen is wonderful for binding and I also use it sometimes when piecing. And I now use the regular dispenser for basting. No more pins!!! YAY! :D
|
Thanks for the heads up! I'll have to remember that and the tax free weekend.

I have not seen the Elmer's washable school glue dual tip pen I will have to check that out and watch for it on sale. thanks for the heads up on school sales we were just mentioning that it is 6 weeks until school starts here.

Have anyone used the elmers glue spray??? I do use it a lot and love it . Yall try it .

I just bought 8 bottles at Dollar General (their brand) for 50 cents each. I store my glue stocks in a ziplock bag in the fridge. Think I heard of that on QB. So far, my glue sticks are still sticking.

I have the worst time with binding. I can't get it even on both sides. Any tips about the dual tip pen and how you use it to do binding would be appreciated.

I have used a lot of glue in the past to stiffen crocheted angels. I got some for 48 cents a bottle. I made the comment to one of my teenagers that I should really quit drinking it. She was very quick to shush me. Can't take Mom anywhere.

B-Rabbit, you are cracking me up!!:D I love Elmer's and will definitely look for this dual tip pen--it sounds really handy! I haven't seen the spray. Another thing to pick up cheap is notebook paper for piecing. A friend of mine says to get the cheapest because it is lightweight, tears off easily, and she uses the lines on the paper as a guide to keep her strips straight! Gonna try this for sure!
