I'm sure most of you know this anyway but I was surprised!
I think about this kind of stuff a lot. I try not to use things where I have to throw something away. I do not like spray baste for this reason. I avoid chemicals as much as possible. Fusing has been my biggest grapple. It is so darn easy.

the culture of quilting has changed so much, but hopefully the essence is the same.
