If this works- I'm hooked (or glued)
 

After all the posts about basting with Elmer's school glue, I gave it a try today. Wow, I was done in no time- less than half an hour to baste a twin sized quilt. It is drying as I type this, then on to FMQ- keep your fingers crossed! Pins would have taken much longer and I would have sore fingers too.

I just finished a double quilt that I basted with Elmer's it worked wonderfully.

I'm giving a demo of using Elmer's to baste at the community quilt class I teach once a month. It's cheap, fast and no puckers or pleats in the back. It's the only way I baste now.

I love it, drizzled straight from the bottle. Can't see myself going back to the other methods.

i don't what took me so long to jump on the bandwagon... i tried it last month for the first time and just love it

I also use the glue and the last 5 quilts I have done have not killed my back. It is so easy and quick never going back to pinning.

I have used the stick glue for matching seams and once I use up the basting spray I am going to try it. The stick glue and the wonder clips works so great, the glue is dry by the time I start sewing it and it works so much better.

Wow!! I am an Elmer's glue convert for binding, but have never tried it for sandwiching a quilt. Do y'all dilute the Elmer's glue and then either squeeze it on (how close) or spray it on. I'm ready to try this, but still need a few answers....................

Many of us just drizzle it on straight from the bottle in sort of an imperfect grid. Some like to dilute and spray or paint on. I just drizzle on. Do a search on it in our search function. You can see a lot of responses

I guess I am just too old for these new tricks but I could NEVER imagine using Elmer's white glue on one of my quilts. SORRY !!!
