Default Getting more than frustrated. What to do about sewing with bonding fabric.

I thought it would be so much fun to work on a few Row-by-Rows. Many patterns are so fussy and they suggested I use a bonding fabric..... steam-a-seam 2-lite.

But I'm stitching around the edges and the bonding glue is making my needle sticky, breaking the thread every few inches.

I've tried wiping the needle down with rubbing alcohol but I can't do that every few inches!! Well, I could but I don't want to. That's like every 2-3 minutes of sewing.

Do any of you have any suggestions?? I know now why I applique and not stitch with this stuff.... Argh!!
