Hey Kerry! Some of us use glue for holding the binding in place until it can be sewn. Some use glue instead of pins or other means of basting. I use glue sticks for my applique work instead of heat bond/wonder under. It doesn't leave the quilt stiff and you can move it around for a while until you get your pieces just right. I use your basic Elmers school glue. It washes out the first time with no problems. Doesn't stain your fabric.

Hope that answers your question
