I just bought Dritz Basting spray Temporary Adhesive for Sewing, Quilting, Embroidery & Appplique. Any suggestions? I have not put the 3 layers together ever and a 'You-tube' quilter suggested a temp spray. I about fainted when I priced the 505 mentioned on the video. Any comments/suggestions,please. I have not used it and if not acceptable, I can return it,Thank you goonberrie

I've never seen/heard of Dritz.

I prefer the 505 over June Tailor.

I have used the Dritz and it worked fine. It has more odor than the 505 and I am not sure how long it holds for. 505 will hold the quilt sandwich together for a long time.

I have used kk5000 quilting spray for years and no problems with the gumming up the machine or anything. I love it, it helps those slippery places that are hard to hold. The secret is not to overdo, as in anything, just light spray. I always use it on the backing/batting of my quilting to hold it in place while I'm basing the top in place, works great and washes out, does not affect the batting.

Hope this helps.

I too use the Elmers spray glue in the craft section of WalMart. It is washable and non temporary if used as directed.

I have used Dritz basting spray and I love it. Sure beats all that pinning. A 6.2 oz. can goes a long way. It has done 2 twin size, 2 crib and 6 place mats so far, but I think it is about empty. And the hold will last for several weeks of folding and unfolding. Cleans up with water. Can you tell, I am sold on it. Janet

I have used spray glue made by Elmers to hold flannel to the foam core that is on my design wall but it is not the same as the spray "glue" that I use for my quilts. It is made by Sullivans but I also use the ones made by Sulky as well.
Hope your sister has good luck with her project.
I love your avatar!
