I used it for the first time after the last post when someone inquired and I am definitely going to use it for my future projects.

I prefer the 505 over the others. It isn't so strong that it feels stiff and it washes out the first wash. The other one I also like for table runners and such is sulky KK2000. Haven't had a problem with either one. I used Sullivans a couple of times but it was almost too sticky. This is just my opinion.

Only way to go, I have used Dritz, June Taylor, and now 505. I bought a case of it in a red canmso I won't run out!

I do believe if I shook with all my might with my left and right arms I might give myself a black eye from all that loose skin flapping about! LOL - The one thing Weight Watchers doesn't tell you is how loose everything is (for us older folks) once you've lost a lot of weight (96 lbs!) - I feel like a dried prune!

I love it if I can get outdoors or into the garage to spray. I don't like it on my floors and countertops in the sewing room

Is it worth trying? What does everyone feel are the pros and cons of using this instead of pins.

Thanks

I use this (very, very lightly) to refresh my Cricut cutting mats. Not exactly a quilting answer I know. I love cross-over products!
