I have some Golden threads paper and saw on a show that use some sort of glue dots? to hold the paper down to your quilt...has anyone used these and if so, do they come off of the fabric ok?
I found them at Hobby lobby and no where on the package does it say anything about them being used on fabric.....and I was wondering what would be the difference between the elmers glue dots and plain old double sided tape? I have always just basted or pinned my paper down.... |
OOh, I would watch out for those glue dots. They are super sticky and leave a residue. Great on paper, fabric, not so much. I'm thinking if you saw it on a show there's a special kind that you would use for quilting and it would be clearly stated on the packaging.

I use golden threads paper..but I just use 505 spray and it washes out....I have never seen the glue dots..I have no idea.

I have some. Thought it would help. I hated them. I'm trying to remember what it was I hated about them and I now I can't remember!!

I was curious, so I googled 'glue dots for quilting'. Several hits came up on other BBs basically saying don't use them, however, I did come up with this hit:
http://terriesandelin.blogspot.com/2...part_7325.html where she talks about using small dots of Roxanne’s Glue-Baste-It. Basically dots of a fabric safe glue, not glue dots. Hope this helps. Nancy |

I have used glue dots and they work fine. You don't need tons of them on the paper and they come right off the quilt. Now keep in mind, I don't leave them on the quilt for days on end. I have only put them on, sewn and then taken the paper and glue dots off right away.
