Yes, very much so, don't think I will ever go back to spray basting again. I first used the Elmers Clear School Glue, it was a little thin and left 'trails'. The I purchased a larger bottle of Elmers White School Glue, and I like this one so much better....I hold the bottle high and barely squeeze the bottle, I find I like a very thin drizzle, but a fairly good amount of drizzle. Then you just smooth down your fabric and wait for it to dry. Once both sides are sandwiched I personally allow the entire quilt to dry over night. Then I free motion quilt to my hearts content. No gummie needles. and when I am all done with the binding I throw the whole thing in the washer.....It comes out beautiful

Such simple little things to say but mean so much. I too am thankful for this forum because it is so nice and uplifting to read such kind words about each others work. As a new quilter I have learned so much from all of you. Thank you.

I'm so thankful for this board for the sisterhood it brings. If one of us has a problem, everyone helps out. If someone won an award, everyone cheers them on. There's nothing like this board!!!

I think the thing im greatful for is the friends ive made.
Ive meet the nicest people, made somelasting bonds too.
thru these friends, ive learned so much, and not justt quilting.
i look forward to meeting with quilty friends and writing to you all on
This line. I used to hear people say oh my computer friend.
yeah, like they really exist. Well...they do. Some of you ive never met, or for that
Matter talked to, but i write to you all the time. Some of you i talk to every once in awhile,
Some every day. Some i see every week, some a few times a year. But...you're all my friends.
And ones i can always go to for quilty advice. I get to go to a
Quilt show every day when all ofyou show me your beautiful work.
Then we have days with fab recipies.
You're all the best. Thank you for being my friens.

Can some one please share with me what this is? How is it different than the regular plate, I meam what kind of a differnece does it make in piecing? Thanks in advance for the help ladies.
