I bought a can of basting spray but for my last quilt I was afraid to use it. I am new to quilting, and sandwiching it is so difficult for me. I would love to see a tute for doing this step. This last top was hard to center for some reason. I was wondering if there is a method of doing it. Maybe it was the static in the air, because once I placed it, it wouldn't shift easy, and I kept getting my borders short on one side or the other....know what I mean. Maybe I was concerned about the backing looking square as it was always looking tilted. I hope I'm making sense.

I both always spray and pin. Then thru out quilting when on my domestic after I have quilted so far re-adjust if needed and pin some more.

I just paid $12.99 at JoAnn's. Haven't used this brand before, but I do use basting spray a lot and love it.

Spray baste is the only way I baste. I use any brand, whatever I find on sale. I really can't tell the difference.

I really like it also. Need to be very careful of the overspray. I use lots of newspapers.

I love it! The only problem is figuring out where to do it especially when the quilt is large.

OK, I'll be contrary and say I absolutely hate it. It gets all over everything - your hair, the room, etc. Do it outdoors when there is no breeze.
