Sorry I have not responded to some of you! I had to go to sleep. LOL. Having a cup of coffee and will start responding. I truly have enjoyed this post. I know it is unusual to respond to every post; but, I just felt like sharing and being a bit one on one.

Could not agree more! There is so much information available on the board. A great place to explore and learn.

I have used the glue sticks, but will have to try this method for matching up seams!

Oh goodness that is a great question. I tried to get a picture/but having an older camera that sometimes does not focus well....the Porcupine Quill, that a fellow quilter sent me as a gift, is what I use. It is sharp and tiny on both ends and works great for holding the fabric in place while placing the iron on top. I think there are numerous items that would work for this step. A toothpick, Chopsticks, the end of the seam ripper, plus I believe there are specific products for this (forgive me, just waking up and brain not functioning) I just can not think of the name. Have a great time experiencing this method and let me know how you like it.

It is funny, I really had to think about sharing....thinking others would think I was insane and off my rocker. LOL. But, after a few more seams, I knew I wanted to share and was hoping to help another quilter find a solution to a similiar problem I faced. Am so glad that I did. I have learned a lot from this post alone and have had a great time responding to all of the posts and getting to know everyone a tad bit more.!

Definetelly have to spend time on the board daily just so I do not miss any wonderful information, dream about making a similiar quilt and some fun laughs.

I have never not washed one of my quilts when finished. But, yes, on some fabrics (like the light ones I am working with) the glue spot does show. Yet, since I always try and glue very close to the edge of the fabric; it usually always disappears in the seam line. On some applique projects, when not paying great attention, I have used a bit to much glue and it ends up being on the outer fabric. In my experience, the glue has always disappeared and never reappeared. As one of the other quilters mentioned, it is a liquid starch product.

Actually, I have thought about doing exactly this....but being on a strict budget at this time, I never seem to have the extra to buy in bulk. But, I will definetely be doing this as soon as our budget has a little extra! Thanks for sharing this idea.

It is so much easier to use the Elmer's school glue. I recently bound a king size quilt; started with pins and said to DH to heck with this slaughter on my hands and arms, pulled them all out and used the glue! I used it all the way around the quilt and voila! It works! Now I plan to use it to help me match the seams, such a great idea!

I hope with your experience, you are as happy as myself and others that have done this method.
