Have any of you tried spray starch. I know when you iron over it it sticks extremely well. WE use to use starch( the old fashioned boiled starch) for wall hanging paste and it stuck until mama pulled it down.j

What do it do to your needle on your sewing macjine? Does it make it stickey?
|
No, no sticky. Doesn't do any thing to needle or machine or iron. I use it all the time. I make my own starch. A couple of tablespoons of cooking starch and a spray bottle of water . Have to shake it every time you spray as it settles to the bottom. Really good to iron clothes with.
Cheap as dirt. Try it you'll like it. Annette |
Ok what is cooking starch?
|
It's in the baking goods section. Argo is one brand. It's a thickening agent to make sauces and such.

I use Aqua Net all the time. It has not seemed to hurt my machine. Note: I do wash every quilt after it is finished and before it is used/gifted/donated!

I also use hairspray to "set" the pounce powder when making a stenciled pattern. The powder stays on the fabric when I use my Mega Quilter, doesn't bounce around.
