I sprayed three quilts, 75x75 largest, with the small can. I have some left, but need more for two WIPs.

I buy Sullivans, twice the size for half the price.

I have used Elmer's water soluable spray glue. Much cheaper than the 505 I have used.

Try Wal-mart.It may be a different brand, but it still works.

The reason I have stuck with 505 is that it holds. Three months later I can quilt my sandwich and don't have to worry about it moving. Well worth the price. I just object to that darn high shipping charge. Our LQS usually sells it around $13.50 and doesn't charge extra freight, but they are out right now and I want to finish something before Thanksgiving.

And where do you get Sullivans, Sue?

Hancock's Fabrics has a good one, and the one from WM is decent. both much cheaper than 505. Good Luck

There was an earlier thread about this and some one said you can order it from Walmart.com. If you do site-to-store, you won't pay shipping charges, but it may take several days to get it.

Or if you have a Ben Franklin crafts, you might find it there. We have a BF and it is $11.99 a can. Which reminds me that I need to pick up another can today.

I got a can of Elmer's spray adhesive at WalMart, I don't remember what it cost, but was very reasonable. Try it!
