i saw the link to using elmer's glue on this board recently. it said to use a Bic MECHANICAL pencil - take the tip off and insert it into the orange tip of the elmers glue - you have to pry it off and do some cutting on the elmer's tip but it is soooo fine. i used this method with a young lady last monday. she used the backing folded over for the binding. Well, it took ONE HOUR to fold over, glue, iron and SEW the binding and it was done. i couldn't believe it. i know one thing - as God is my witness, i will NEVER use pins again to bind a quilt.

this was a double bed size quilt and it never moved while we handled it & moved it around. fantastic!!
