The quote is about using Elmer's washable school glue for bindings, etc. Elmer's washable school glue is never used for basting quilt sandwiches. Some people are talking about using Elmer's ***spray adhesive***, a completely different product, for spray basting quilts. The original poster does not recommend the latter because the spray adhesive is permanent; it does not wash out the way the washable school glue does.
