Also I run a small fan on low. I got it together quickly like that. It was a quilt that was about 60 X 72, that took me quite a while to quilt. The spray held very good while quilting. From now on, I will spray baste on my design wall, versus pins or hand basting. Such a time saver.
Do you spray baste from the top down or from side to side? I did a throw on my design wall from the top down, but now I have a queen size and a couple kingsize quilts to baste and was wondering which would be easier. I agree, after doing that one quilt, the design wall is the only way to go.
