I put whatever I want to spray down on my deck (waiting for a non-windy time) on top of a sheet and spray cautiously, trying hard not to breathe in any of the mist, then take the piece I've sprayed into the house. When I'm done I toss the sheet right into the washer. I think it's dangerous stuff and should be used exactly as the manufacturer directs.
I use "The Original Quilt Basting Spray" It does say Harmful if inhaled but only says to use in adequate ventilation - since I tack the quilts on my front hallway wall - I open the front door. I couldn't lay a quilt outside if I wanted to - in Corpus Christi if the wind dies down then something is really really wrong - we have a constent 10 mph wind minimum in this city.
