Truly, had never used it before today. And, wow, what a great product! It did smell a bit, but almost no fumes. Great adhesion to the fabric and I was able to reposition and smooth out any bumps. And, most importantly, it isn't gumming up my needle, which is what I was most nervous about. (The ladies who recommended it to me assured me that it would not be sticky on my needle - and it isn't.)

Oh, and, the quilt I used it on is the Ugly Fabric Quilt - I was the "winner"! It's almost finished - pictures will come next week!

I love it too - but I have to wear a mask to keep it out of my nose.

I also recently used basting spray for the first time - and love it! I used 505 spray. I didn't see it at Joann's last time I was there - they had two other brands and I wondered how they compared to what I had...

Wish it wasn't so expensive, but I use it and love it. Walmart carries it and it's much cheaper(unless you use coupons an joann's) and it works well for me.

I tried 505 AFTER trying others which were OK but I'm a 505-lifer now!

Usually the brands other than 505 smell really, really bad when you spray
