Thank you so much GemState, I am going to try thinning it enough to put in a spray bottle. Just wanting to do it on small items at the moment and will give me a great opportunity to get it right.

I do sandwich it before I start then turn half of the backing/quilt top back and spray half at a time. If I'm going to start quilting on it right away I press it lightly just to dry it quickly, and if I'm not I just leave it alone for a few hours until it dries before starting to quilt. I've had very good results doing it this way and it is never stiff or never has "hard spots". Good luck!
As for how much water to use in diluting the glue, I dilute it just enough so it will spray a fine mist.
