    Ebay has a daily deal today for 2 guns that look just like the basting gun I have for quilting. It is $5 for the 2 including shipping. I ordered a set cause the tip of mine broke off. Hope it will work!

    can you get the refills for it? I got one from Joanns and they don't carry the refills but I found the correct refills at keepsake quilting. Same brand that I bought from Joanns.

    I've never used one of these and never seen one in person, but it seems like they'd leave large holes in your quilt????

    No, I have never noticed the holes at all. I also got my refills at Walmart.

    My Walmart used to carry the guns and the refills, but they quit when they cleared out all the crafting stuff a year or two ago.

    You should be able to find the refills online somewhere, ebay, Amazon, etc.
