I like fusible spray. have used fusible batting fine. no gumming my needle. i used Hobbs Heirloom 80/20 batting , both fusible and non fusible. sprays, 505 i like best but Sulky is good too. just move arm as spraying and use sparingly like hair spray. let sit awhile before taking to the sewing machine. washes out fine.
regular fusible batting will feel a bit stiff but not much. helps keep things smooth while you quilt. i use a folding table, place my quilt layers on it. take a six inch base board and fold the quilt up on it, folding over board and top as I go. Then spray and unfold board and top and lightly patting down.,spraying, moving, and patting down. etc. works well. move the quilt over that you've finished and do the other side. Then the opposite ends until all is fused.
