Why did you put flannel on it? And what kind of spray glue do you use when sandwiching your quilts together on it? I had my dh make me one but we did not flannel it and we don't know what kind of spray glue to use that wont hurt the insulation...

OK, I put flannel on it so when I finish small square blocks I can just lay them on and they stick as I build the quilt. However once I start sewing the squares together into strips, I do use pins and thats when I love the styrafoam. To adhere the flannel to the styro I used 3M Super 77 which is a permanent spray. I also cut the 4 foot wide panels in half and then used duct tape on back for hindges.

I like the Dritz temp spray for sandwiching my quilts
