Are you planning to wash your quilt when done? I tried the glue on a wall hanging that I did not want to wash and it got hard spots where the glue was. I was not happy with the way it came out. Any suggestions, anybody?

I just laid the rows out on my ironing board, dabbed on tiny dots of glue and pressed. Then when I started to sew, the sewing was faster because there were no pins and it was a breeze to do those long seams, something I usually don't like to do with lots of pins.
So thanks to all the QB members who have shared their gluing experience. I will be putting the rows of Bonnie Hunter's Easy Street together next week, and will skip the pins and use glue. I'm a believer!
