It is a little more time consuming the first couple of times. I use 2.25" strips but you may be more comfortable with 2.5". A lot also depends on how thick your batting is. I always use a thin batting.
The glue method is great. Today I also tried it for holding down needle turn applique pieces and it worked very well.
