Do you use one that doesn't have an oder? I use 101 and it's pretty good that way. I have asthma too and DH has a fit if I use a smelly one. He doesn't think quilting is more important than breathing for some reason.

Have any of you used the quilt basting gun-the one that shoots small plastic tabs thru the sandwich to hold it together? I bought a June Tailor a few years back as well as the plastic grid to put under the sandwich, and used it a couple of times (it was quicker than pinning or thread basting).

Good grief, I sure spelled that one wrong, meant odor.

I LIKE FUSIBLE BATTING. I HAVE USED THE SPRAY BUT I MANAGED TO GET IT ALL OVER MY FLOOR AND MY HUSBANDS FEET WERE STICKING "WHAT'S ALL OVER THE FLOOR?" " GEE HONEY i DON'T KNOW." SINCE I FOUND THE FUSIBLE BATTING I DON'T USE THE SPRAY ANYMORE.GOOD LUCK.

I haven't used mine since I discovered spray basting. It was a lot easier for me than pinning or thread basting, though.
