Ditto on that! I've been basting the blankity blank velcro and elastic on Kindle and tablet covers I've been making. Egad. My sore fingers thank you.
I have used glue on bindings. Like many, I was skeptical. But it holds it in place on the back when stitching from the front and I prefer machine sewn bindings on quilts that are going to have busy lives. If I don't want to wash the whole thing for some reason, I have found going around the edge with a wet cloth seems to do the trick.
