Just had a thought. I am about to make a rag quilt & this would work great for putting the batting in the sandwich. A dot in each corner would hold it & I won't have to worry about it shifting when I put in embroidery frame to quilt. Thanks for tip.

Yes, the white glue dries clear and so does the purple glue stick. I personally use the glue stick. Lots less mess to deal with and it holds well.

When you use the glue, open it only enough to get little dots out when you squeeze it. Put the dots every 1/4" , fold it inplace and heat with iron. It only takes seconds to dry it. I only glue the corners, 2'' in each directions as the rest is easy to fold and sew as you go. Washable white school glue is what I use.

I never use an iron on it, also use a thin line and not a dot.

The only issue I can see with a wall hanging is that it may yellow over time. I had that happen to me on a quilt I had put aside an hadn't finished and washed. The yellowing did come out in the wash though

I have used the school glue for years now and love it , sure makes everything so much easer

That is good to know, COYOTEMAGIC. What a wealth of information QB members have to share. I hadn't thought of it yellowing over time.

I have used the Elmer's glue for lots of things in sewing and I love it. Does anyone know where to get the tips that Sharon Schamber suggests using? I have looked everywhere and can not locate them.

I used it and it was so stiff, I did not think I would ever get the binding stitched down. I do hand stitch my bindings down. It did wash out fine.
