It was the elmers glue I had no success with as it created lage blobs which although it washed out the quilting wasn't as smooth as I would have liked.
I've never used glue for basting, but I have been interested for quite some time.
Can you say, "skeered?"
I watched a video a few days ago and it showed using one of those foam paint
things on a stick to spread the glue flatly.
The lady on the video said it wouldn't flatten out completely after glueing
but when you quilted it wouldn't make a difference.
I worry about the glue either not washing out or "going through" my fabrics
after working so long to do an entire top with quality fabrics ($$$ and sweat
and tears).
Maybe I'll do a small sandwich test.
