Default Pool Noodle
The last Elmer washable glue basting I did, I found when smoothing the quilt top back in place that some of my seams distorted a bit. I wanted something that would allow me to roll up half of the top, apply glue then roll the fabric back down in a smooth manner. My trusty pool noodle to the rescue! I rolled half up, applied glue and then rolled it back down. Worked really well![ATTACH=CONFIG]545285[/ATTACH]

Great idea. I am going to try it since I always have a problem using the glue method. Thanks!
