I use the Elmer's School Glue and LOVE it! Many people get the smaller bottle tips but I just use the one on the bottle, with it opened just enough, to allow a thin line of glue through. Just recently, I read a thread (on QB), which suggested adding a small amount of water to the glue, to thin it and make it flow more easily. I haven't tried that but am thinking it'd be especially good, for basting. Yes, basting! Many of us use the Elmer's School Glue for basting, with wonderful results! It all washes out, with detergent and warm water, after the quilt is finished.

I used to dread the sandwiching and binding but since learning about the Elmer's School Glue and Sharon Schamber, it's the easiest part! Gee, I really do sound like a commercial, don't I?

Note: only use the glue if you can wash the finished quilt.
