It may vary by store, but in the Michael's near me the tips are hanging in the glass painting area, near the paints. Have heard also that they are sometimes in the scrapbooking area.

Update on plaid tips. I emailed them and they do not produce them anymore. I guess mine are really old. :mrgreen:

It was doled out in gobs from a gallon jar on to little pieces of paper for us to use in whatever "art" projects we were working on.

50 years ago, that glue was tasty - so was the Weekly Reader - no wonder I'm brain dead...

You ate the Weekly Reader? I remember sampling the paste - so you aren't alone there. Boy, I haven't thought of the Weekly Reader in umpteen years or several umpteens, actually.

I just used the bottle with tip (picture posted on page 5) with Elmer's Washable School glue. The tip worked great...such a tiny line of glue.

My quilts are just everyday things (not professional), so I don't think I'll take the time to use that method, but it was interesting to see the methods being used.

Here is one of her links:

Once you are on her page, you can see the others.

Wow that was a really interesting video. I'm going to have to buy me some glue to try it out. Thanks for the link.

I love how we can hear of lots of different ways to do things. Some we will use, others we won't. Some will work for us, and some won't. But isn't it great that we can share ideas?!?

You get two empty bottles to fill with glue, fabric paint, anything you want. Go to page 5 to see my pictures.

I just bought one of those at WalMart today. I am looking forward to trying it. I am glad it worked well for you.
