    Aleen's tacky spray

    Has anyone used Aleene's tacky spray for basting their quilts. I want to try a different baste for the Sullivan's I used to use has changed formulas and I hate it now. I have used the 505 spray and worked fine but I is so expensive and doesn't go very far. I did try the Aleene's on a scrap piece and it seemed to hold about like the 505.

    Did you wash the sample to make sure that it all came out. I would not want the glue to stay in the quilt. There are a lot of people in my family with allergies.

    I still have a can left of Sullivan's. Really sad that they changed the formula.

    ** Make sure you get the "re positionable". They also make a "permanent" variety.

    Never regret growing older, its a privilege denied to many.
    Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
