The metal tip aren't really necessary and are a pain in the neck to clean. Just barely open the Elmers and put little dots on the fabric. I have been using glue a lot in different applications. If you are doing bindings that you want to hand stitch down, make sure you press the binding after glueing as that will keep it from getting hard.

Hi, Is this post good timming or what. I to have been looking for the metal tip. Thanks BrendaK
|
A few years ago, I found metal glue tips in a hobby shop located near the glues. Good luck!

I got a small bottle and metal tips at Michaels after seeing Sharon Schamber's video. The same technique works GREAT for binding, BTW.

Dozens of hits. Here are a couple, the descriptions mention use for quilting. Are these the right ones?: http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog/p...ODID=xprd72728 http://www.amazon.com/Ultrafine-Appl.../dp/B000WWM6R6 |

Thanks to all of you. I have learned a lot of tips and tricks on here..All are so helpful..

Here's the one I use with Roxanne's glue or Elmer's Washable School Glue:
