The best trick to the recipe is to make it at night and let it cool to room temperature before adding last ingredient. This has been a game changer and I have already made two batches! Great stuff

I checked out the youtube chatterbox quilting site and I will definitely give this a try and make my own. Seems easy enough. Thanks for the tip

I love 505 basting spray but it is so expensive in Canada - $40.00 for the larger size. June Tailor's basting spray is also very good and again very expensive in Canada. Luckily I ordered several cans of both the last time we were in AZ.

I use June Tailor's. It is less expensive and I have had no porblems using it.

I like the spray in the blue can at walmarts, it doesn't gum up your needles and it works great. The price is nice as well.

I've tried several different brands of basting spray. I've come back to 505. I like it the best.
