Thank you for this, kind of thought this may be the way to go, just needed reassurance. This is my first quilt in two years, and I put the glue on the fabric instead of the batting. Have always basted this way with success but this quilt is much bigger and will not fit on my Styrofoam wall that I use for basting. I had to use the patio table which is larger and I ironed instead of pressing the glue in. That could have been the problem.
I will try this tomorrow.
