I've just finished pinning the quilt but I've not given up, I'll try it next time. Thanks again
Elmer's doesn't really get tacky. It's pretty much either wet or dry. What kind of batting are you using anyway? Are you trying to glue baste some kind of high loft, poly stuff? You need batting that has more of a solid surface to use Elmer's to baste with.
