Hi ! Yep thats me ! I LOVE my misto bottles one for glue and one for starch ! I dilute my glue for the Misto bottle though my formula is a bit unmeasured LOL, This is my dilution method for elmers / water for using in the misto and it does come out perfect every time ! I also use starch for basting instead of glue too , depending on the size of the project.
This is how I " measure" my glue and water mixture. LOL it is a 16 oz water bottle

Watched the video also. It looks much neater than the drizzle method. And much easier than squeezing the glue bottle with arthritic hands. Now off to find a Misto Bottle. Thanks for posting the link and thanks to Slightlyoffquilter for making the video.

Do any of you own and use the misto bottle? It reminds me of the pampered chef type bottle that i have had for years but rarely use because its a pain. I can think of at least 20 different uses for a functioning spray bottle. I dislike aerosol cans and I use a LOT of hairspray

Friend of mine has one of those and hates it. I just use a fine tip (made one by wrapping tape on the end) saw it on a video. Then squirt/squeeze it out an spread with a spatula. Works for me.

I have a Misto that I use for oil and as someone said, you can't fill more than half full. Also need to wash it when you refill it so it doesn't get gunked up. Directions say to pump 15-20 times if I remember correctly. No problems once I read the directions.

One of the reasons I like glue basting is because you don't have the mess of spaying (over spray etc). I have a Misto bottle for olive oil and use it quite a bit in the kitchen. You can get them at most department stores in the kitchen section. I'll stick with the fine stream of glue I get when I hold the glue bottle upside down a fair distance from my quilt. I'm doing a demo on it today at quilt guild.
