For what it is worth.....have used basting spray for years, especailly with all my machine embroidery work, but it is expensive, even though I now buy it at Walmart, it is still well over $5 a can. So I am really going the Elmers school glue route.....especially since we can get it so cheap at this time of the year....and it hold sooooooooooo welll......and bonus !!!! it washs out, something that my basting spray does not always do, even though it says it should......I mean how cheap can glue be !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
