I had a can of the June tailor baste spray, did not like it . You have to use it outside. ( who takes their quilts outside to baste?especially in a cold climate area in the winter!) It did not "age" well, it lost its tackiness over time ( guess I should have used it up quickly). I thought after this whats all the fuss about , why is everyone so happy and I am dissapointed.... then I discovered the 505 and Dritz temp spray... WOW ! LOVE It !! It was truley a life changing find. No odor , it holds well, does not gum up the needle. I even use it on my templates to keep them from sliding around . Just a touch to give it a bit of tackiness.
It is a bit pricey ... but sooo.. worth it. I hated the pinning process, and it seemed more came out before they were supposed to, plus I would always seem to get "stuck" with a few either from having them fall on the floor or as I was manipulating the pin basted quilt.
