I spray starch on one side of block/material then iron from other side. Nothing sticks to iron that way.

Faultless just released a spray starch/sizing--not sure how they really describe, but just out. Faultless is HQ in KC and they brought it to the KCRQF with it released just about a week before the show. Will be trying it soon.

It looks like what quiltingshorttimer is referring to is Magic QUILTING & CRAFTING SPRAY is a new product. It looks like that the the only current place to purchase is from their site. According to their site the ingredients are:
  • Water
  • Sodium Polymethacrylate
  • Methylisothiazolinone
  • Methylchloroisothiazolinone
  • Peg-12 Dimethicone
  • Polyaticonic
  • Acid Sodium Zinc Salt

We have the new Faultless sizing spray at our Walmart in Oklahoma - right next to the spray starch in the laundry aisle.. That's why I was wondering about it and how it ( the sizing spray) compared to starch.

Let us know what you think!

I've been using the Luxe finish (gold cap) for a couple of years. It's more toward the "crisp" on their scale. I do use Best Press sometimes as well, but find that mainly to be helpful in removing stubborn creases. For quilting - well, piecing - I want crisp, especially when working with pieces that start at 1" or so.

Faultless used to carry a liquid starch that came in gallon bottles; you mixed to your liking. I preferred it to Stay-Flo.
