Now that's a great ideas! Do use the Elmer's for lining up seams and bindings and such but never thought to "baste" a quilt for quilting! Love spray but found out with a huge King size that the backing must have been polyester and the spray did NOT work at all!

I'm not sure about the backing but that would be blamed on my technique. So far I am quilting through the glue with no issues.
