Wow! Very pretty quilt, bet it's heavy with the denim and corduroy, but I guess ya'll need that up there! LOL! I like spray basting, but it gets expensive. So I mostly use the elmers glue now, make sure it's the washable one. What I do is water it down to about half water, half glue, I heat the water in the microwave so it kind of melts the glue and makes it much easier to squeeze out. Bout killed my hands when I first tried it full strength! Anyway, I have a spare room, so I spread my backing first, then batting, fold back half of the batting, put glue on the batting, smooth down, repeat other half, I turn on ceiling fan, let dry a few hours, then put top on and do the same, always put glue on batting, then I let mine dry overnight. Some say they iron to speed drying. Good Luck, show us when done ok!
