yipeeeeeeeeeee welcome to the world i used pins on my first quilt and i said after that there has to be a easier way than pins i saw the 505 basting spray at my local quilt shop and asked the lady what it was for and she said she uses it so i tried it and fell in love i use it everytime i have even gone as far as to move the quilt from room to room tote it around with me differant places and it still stays in place before i get it all sewn then i wash the quilt after i am done
