Wink Will spray starch help with limp fabric

I am in the process of ripping apart a quilt top that I had added shashing to. It was my first time to do it and about halfway through the project realized that the fabric I was using to sash was kind of limp and floppy. I did not know if using spray starch when I re-do this will give the material the body it needs to stay in place and not get wavy.

Or maybe I am trying a technique that is too far above my pay grade (which is low!) I love the feel of the softer, nicer fabrics but they are touchier for me to sew with as a beginner and I do not want to waste my time and money sewing with fabric that is sub-par because it is easier.

Thoughts?? P.S. I love this website - so helpful!
