When I started with the glue, I got some small plastic bottles, with narrow tips. I had to squeeze harder, for the glue to come out quickly, which got old really fast! Now I just use the regular tip and move more quickly, as I drizzle it on. Sometimes I touch the batting with the side of the tip, while going back and forth, in a sort of zig-zag pattern. Just don't open the tip all the way.

I glued the binding on a wall hanging today & it was just as easy as the quilt I first tried this method on. In neither case did I use a fine tip; I didn't open the Elmer's tip all the way. I found it was easy to adjust for the size of the line I needed. I didn't use a very fine line, so it wasn't too difficult to squeeze.
