And you can baste tons of quilts with a gallon of Elmer's. I bought a litre because
that's all they had here and I basted several quilts and I still have lots left. I pour some in the 4oz container and have more than enough to baste a large quilt. The
glue is diluted to where I like it...not too liquid and not too thick. In other words,
a little goes a long way.
