I plan to top stitch something that will be turned over to the top and then stitched very very close to the edge. Don't know if it will work or not but will try at least one or two small projects this way to see if it works if not I will figure something else out.

Will the basting spray gum up my machine needle??? Will it stick to the table or anywhere else I am spraying if there is an over spray? Does it clean up easy if there is an over spray? Is it a permanent bond or just temporary until stitched in place?

Again, any suggestions, ideas would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
I love Sulky basting spray. It doesn't gum up your needle. I do spray on under side of fabric. Another tip is I also use glue stick, especially when it's close to the edge like you're talking about. Good luck!
