    I too have used the spray on my quilts. It is really nice. If I lay my back or top wrong, I just adjust it. I then reheat with my iron.

    The diluted school glue is the method I use on a regular basis.
    When school glue can be bought at Wal mart for .50 cents a bottle(Aug. sales), why bother with the work, worry and mess with making homemade???

    I have used this technique for the last three quilts I made after watching this tip. I use Sta-Flo diluted half and half, and pit it into a spray bottle. It is quite economical, as my Walmart sells it in a half gallon container for about $3. I have tried the basting sprays, but don't like the fumes.

    For those of you who use Elmers glue to spray baste -- what is the ratio of glue to water that works?
