Which brand are you using? I started with Sullivan's (pink can) as that was what I found at Mary Jo's (Gastonia). We use the June Tailor brand at my one quilt guild to baste and that seems to work just fine, too. My problem with not sticking was that I didn't hit the edges well as I was afraid of overspray and we work in a senior center and I didn't want to get it on the carpet (table is covered with brown paper). I use a sheet at home on the floor so it's way bigger than what I am working on so have no problems with getting edges good. Using too much of the spray may be why it's stiff. My quilts are not stiff and the spray holds as long as is needed.

Hope this helps.
