If you scroll down to the bottom of the first page, click on "next ten" to get to the second page and then again on the second page, the binding video is about mid-point down on the third page. It is called "Binding the Angel." Worth the look if you haven't seen it before and want to try her method. |

Here are half of my log cabins I had to do for a BOM. I really like the glue idea! I haven't had them come out so well before because I tend to stretch the fabric. Sorry it took so long to post

I know what you mean about stretching the fabrics. I have the exact same issue. With the quilt blocks I recently made, using the glue prevented that from happening and my blocks are so square instead of rather wonky and out of sinc. Thanks for posting and sharing. |
I also wanted to share with everyone what I found yesterday. Life is really hectic around here, because of a family member in the hospital...no details, just an apology for not posting sooner.
Stopped into a Dollar General store to pick up a few items for a lady who let hubby and I use her car, we do not have air conditioner in ours and here in West Texas (as with many other parts of the world) we are in the triple digets. Which makes any trip into town very unpleasant. Anyhows, while walking around trying to locate the items she needed. I spotted a can of ELMERS SPRAY ADHESIVE. So for anyone who does not want to mix up there own mixture or use the liquid for basting a quilt; this product is available. |
I should also state that I am in no way affiliated with Elmers Washable School Glue in any way. I just wished to share my thoughts and experience. I can not help it that I am per say now IN LOVE with it and can not rave enough about how it has helped me. LOL.

I use washable glue all the time. It's easier for me and it works well for 90% of what I do. I used to rip out many of my joined blocks, now do that only occasionally. It has saved me a lot of time!

Ok, here comes the dumb question. How do you keep he seams lined up while getting it ironed and not get your fingers burned? Is there some tool you use? Could you picture this. I'm doing a Little 9 patch I'd like to try this on.

In the past (when using stitch witchery), I've held seams together for ironing, by just sticking a pin straight through them, into the grid of my ironing board.
