A lot do glue tends to go through all layers. But it does wash out with no problems.
i can't wait till I get a top done so I can glue baste, this sounds like fun. And a lot easier to work with than spray basting.
Thanks chuckbere15. You are probably right about the raw edge work done with fusible. Guess I had better stick with that. But for regular applique and for basting ..... like you, I cannot wait to try this out also. Did I mention how much I hate pinning ... and unpinning? And glory be, I even have some of that Elmer's glue!!!
