Elmer's Washable No Run School Glue in place of pins!
I'm making a Warm Wishes quilt and decided to try the School Glue idea to match seams when joining rows. I pinned the rows together and then at the ironing board I remove the pin at each seam join, use a tiny dollop of glue, press seams together, and iron it dry. (I did use pins along the row where there were no seams to match). This glue "pinning" works like an absolute charm! The glued seams are easy to sew over, no pins moving when sewing, no fabric shifting, and when done, the seams match perfectly. I can already imagine how well it works when matching corners. This is the greatest new thing since sliced bread, as people used to say!
Not sure who first tried and discovered the Elmer's School Washable No Run Glue trick, but it's a great boon to piecing. Thanks to all those who shared it here!
