Wow! I learn something new and clever all the time on QB. Thanks for the tip--can't wait to try this!!

Quilters on here are so clever thanks for the tip .

I never have much trouble getting the top piece down over the glue. I take the center first, pull it down, and then smooth out to the sides.
But I do need a pool noodle. My table is against the wall, so once in a while something falls behind it. There are boxes of stash under there in several spots, so it is a real pain to look for something that may be back there. I want to put a pool noodle over the crack, at least behind where I work.

I think this could help me, even though I don't use glue. On the last quilt I basted, the batting (dream cotton) grabbed the back of the top, and when I went to reposition to straighten out the seams, threads started pulling loose from the seam allowances and sticking into the batting. I suspect it was the difference between the lowest loft, which I usually use, and the next one up, which was fluffier. Every loose thread had been clipped before. I ended up having to compromise quite a bit on straightness in order to avoid pulling the thing apart. So, a big thank-you from me., too. :)

Hugs,

Tartan,
I've tried the spray basting, and it is so messy. Does the liquid glue work better? Also, how long does it need to sit before you sew?

Oh great idea. i have a six foot baseboard to "roll" mine on. well, flip and flip and flip.

Great idea! Thank you!

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing.

I like this idea!

I use the foam tubes that go around the plumbing pipes to wrap my binding around. Also use it as a "spine" when I make dolls so their heads don't flop.
