Ah yes, spray glue. Not in my budget lately, but that is a great idea!

Elmer's washable school glue in a spray bottle with just enough water to make it spray.

Long arm quilters can baste on their machines for you.

Look up Sharon Schambers website on google and watch the video on how she does her basting. You can do it on your dining room table and it works brilliantly!

I learned this from my Harriet Hargrave book, so I second this notion :thumbup:
