I am giving a demo on glue basting to my quilt guild this week. It's all I ever do anymore. Love it for the bindings too as no pins to stick me or catch on my thread as I'm hand stitching the binding to the back. I use the glue straight from the bottle in a fine stream and zig zag pattern to sandwich. For my bindings I use the end of an orange stick (like you use for manicures) to dab a little glue on the edge before I roll the binding to the back. I heat set my bindings so they stick right away. For the sandwich I just let it dry. I saw washable glue at Dollar General 2 bottles for $1 their brand and Elmers for $1 bottle. Can't beat how economical it is either.
