Does the glue and paper come out easily when you are done??
roselady. Your GMG is so pretty. Gluing sounds like a good idea, but I really don't mind basting. I have used a spot of glue when making half inch hex's because pins are too long. Seems to work well, and CHR, I have not had a problem getting the papers out, but like I said, I only use a tiny spot, then baste.
