Some people have problems using spray basting on polyester batts, but I think it depends on the brand of basting spray. People who use 505 basting spray say that it works fine on polyester batts.

Pin baste, thread baste or spray baste to prevent shifting...
I use LOTS Of spray baste for center ( spay back to batting and batting to top.. ) and pin baste the edges to keep it from shifting..

I do the same, I always sew the layers together after I FMG, I then sew the binding on one side, Iron it flip the binding to the other side, glue with washable glue and then iron it down. Then I sew the binding to the front side with the sewing machine.

Also, do you have a walking foot? Good to use for applying binding, whether you finish the edges some how or not.

How do I lessen the pressure on the walking foot? I know older machines have a knob on the top that will do that, but she is using a brand new machine and I am not sure how to make that adjustment on it, if we even can.
Thanks,
