I do think glue basting would work well for matching intersections when sewing long rows to each other. I could see right away that they are matchine up as they should. I will try it. Thanks for all the helpful hints.
Jingle, I too always either pin or sew basted my quilts and it was my least favorite part of quilting. I finally spread a large quilt over a table and spray basted it, following it with Pinmoors...you can look them up. I found out about them on this board. I then proceeded to freemotion quilt on my sewing machine...nothing budged!!! I'll NEVER pin or sew baste again...and I think the spray basting is faster than the gluing.
