Thumbs up first time w Elmer's glue

I have been reading about all the uses with Elmer's Glue on this site, soooo I thought I would give it a try putting a patch on the knee of my hubby's jeans.

Well, thank you, thank you girls, that was the easiest patch I ever sewed on his jeans and it looked darn good.

Turned a 1/4 " under the patch and glued then glued it onto the knee and zigzagged all it.

I'm also loving the washable glue stick for smaller projects.

I have four more scrappy hot pads to bind. I'm using Elmer's on them and it goes sooo much smoother!

I haven't used it to make the quilt sandwich yet, but will most likely never, ever do a binding again without it. It allows me to so perfectly place the binding that I am amazed!
