    Thank you to whoever it was that raved about spray basting. I finally tried it, and I'm a convert. It took 14 minutes to baste a 52 x 60 quilt!

    It is the most amazing stuff. Saves my knees and works better that all that pinning. I love it.

    Do you hand quilters use this product also? How well does it hold up (stay together for long run) to being crunched up in a bundle while working in lap frame?

    spray basting. can's of a light spray that you spray onto your quilt backing, gently lay the top down and smooth, turn over and spray again the other side and lay the backing down smoothly. All done basting!!
    Sulky, 505 etc. there are several brands out there. i would spray outside with the quilt on a folding table if i were you but it works wonders. no more pinning or thread basting the layers together for me. too hard to get up off the floor or bend over forever when using a table.

    Don't forget to spray in a ventilated spot. I did mine outside.
