Yes it works pretty well. you can reposition and it does nothing to the machine. Washes out too. I have used it on small projects. I don't know what kind of results you would get with large ones.

I hope your spray works out alright. I use the adhesive spray because I have such a small home and no where to spread it out. When I go to the Moose Lodge I lay the top on the floor and stretch it and tape it to the floor. I spray the back of the quilt top and put the batting on. I rub out all the wrinkles that I can and then spray it, too. I add the backing and let it stand for a little bit before I roll it up loosely to transport home. It has given me a chance to quilt. Before, all I got accomplished was making tops, and lap quilts. Thanks for listening. Ruth

I only use 505....not only is it safe for your machine; but there is no odor using in the home either.

I only do this by hand. I can't stuff all this through my machine. If there is a secret, I surely do not know it so I've been stitching by hand. If I'm alive in 2020, I might have it completed....chuckle.

My Walmart has the spray adhesive that is specifically for quilters. And it's much less expensive then the stuff at Joann's. It's in the craft section.
