Definitely don't want to spray anything, which is why I have not used glue of any kind to baste a quilt. Never thought of using Elmers.....duh! learn something new every day.

When I glue baste, I just swirl the glue in thin strings all over the backing and batting trying to keep the swirl line about 3-4 inches apart, allow each layer to dry since I have no large space for layout. I use Elmers school washable only, and I use it straight from a condiment ( plastic picnic set) bottle.
