Yes, I have tried glue basting on other quilts (including 505) numerous times but find that it doesn't stick very well with the wool/poly batting I use. And no, ripping out stitching is not an option
. What I am trying to work out is whether I can minimise my problem by choosing either to matchstick, or to grid the quilt. If neither option will help then I may bin it as I'm losing interest in investing much more time on it.
