Default Using elmers glue to baste applique and bind quilts

Hi, I just read a post about using the school glue to baste a quilt. I have not done this basting technique yet. A little scared, but do want to try. However, I remember a very nice carpenter who always asked my daughter for the the empty applicator bottle from hairdye. He was right, these bottles have a very small hole and good point. Thus they work just great for many things us quilters use school glue for when quilting. Just a bit of glue comes out and for tiny applique pieces that is just what I want. I want just a bit when binding too. Just make sure you clean all of the hairdye out very, very well.
