I probably used too much and it got very stiff, but since I'm not quilting that part, it is ok. When I sprayed it with water to get markings off, it softened up a lot. I'm assuming that it lost the bond too.
I've had to wet a glued area, to smooth it out, and was able to just touch it with the iron again, to re-bond it. Wonder why nothing would stick to that quilt top. Odd! Had you used any starch on it? Could that have been the culprit?
