I never heard of this stuff.what do you use it on,just quilts,paper piecing,bindings, or just regular ironing clothes? Also please, has anyone ever used those magic bobbins? Seen a segment on those too, can't find them anywhere but on line. I live near-by a Jo Ann's store.

That's what I was thinking. Something that costs 2 cents to make is sold for about $8!

Me either and I have to cover my nose when I spray because it makes me wheezy. The bottle says environmently friendly but that doesn't mean it's not an allergy trigger.
