At my quilt class yesterday our teacher said to never use spray starch...but it was her preference. She said use the cheap sizing from the dollar store. So I went to the dollar store yesterday, and they only had spray starch.

This is probably more than you ever wanted or needed to know about starching/dampening, but there you go. You probably also know how OLD I am!

As for starch, I use the Niagara spray starch in a bottle -- cheap, works well, and you get to use the bottles over again. Starching fabric just makes it so much easier to work with. :thumbup:

Bellaboo: could you be convinced to part with the sprinkler top that fits in a soda bottle? I grew up using one to sprinkle clothes. I have been unable to find one to purchase. I would be willing to pay a reasonable price for it.

I like Mary Ellen's Best Press, too. I use the unscented.
Right now, Joann's website has the gallon jugs of Best Press on sale for $29.39. It has every scent of Best Press on sale including the unscented.
Right now, there is also a coupon code you can use for free shipping. It's PIA160. However, the free shipping is only for orders over $35.00.

where all you can get it. It is a bit more expensive but I think worth it. :thumbup:
