[QUOTE=Onebyone;6823756]Why be scared of school glue? About any pre schooler can probably tell you what it tastes like. QUOTE]

I am currently working on a king size quilt -- 110" x 110". I used 1300 of the curved #1 pins and of course the Kwik klip. It did make the quilt heavy, but once I sew the stabilizing lines, I was able to remove about half of them. I go to all this trouble becuase I have been very sucessful in the back not shifting and having a smooth back when I sew.

I avoid the sprays and glue because I have a top loading washer that I do not believe would get all of the glue out and I worry about long term if any is left in. My washing machine is a new Maytag, but I just am not sure....
