Spray basting
 
I'd first like to say to all on this Board that I have learned soon much from all of you! The Quilt Board is my morning read with coffee everyday!My question is, has anyone spray basted onto a fleece backing? Thanks for any and all inputChris

That is an interesting question. I live in apt complex so I have no place to spray safely.

Maniacquilter2 I live in an apt. too and for anything bigger than crib size, I tape to the outside of the block wall surrounding the dumpsters. Works for me but does tend to attract the curious and create a flood of clothing repair requests which I politely decline. Not trying to highjack your question thread mess, so if your question is quilt specific make a trial square of the exact fabrics and see what you think. If it is fleece in general I suspect yes but only if it is not too stretchy.

Yip, no difference from spray basting any other sandwich.

The fumes just really get to me so no spray basting in the house. Bay winds make it difficult so I try to spray with the direction of the wind. Hate when it tries to do a "whip around".

Yes, I have ... You can see the quilt and read more about how I sandwiched and then quilted it.

Yes. Check the stretchieness of the backing. I did have some which was very stretchy and I didn't use.
