I have never tried glueing anything on quilts! Bet it works well with aplique! I have a walking foot that I use on my bindings and I don't even pin it down and have had great, neat bindings with it. I have a new aplique pattern that I was going to use Heat and Bond on but I might try that "Elmer's in bottle" trick! I have a couple of ink refill bottles that I saved cause as a crafter of everything thing I save EVERYTHING!!LOL

Hi Fidgety,

Sharon Schamber has a tutorial: http://www.sharonschamber.com/free%2...ng%20Class.pdf

Another question on this thread - how soon can you sew after applying the glue? After it's heat set, you're good to go!

Cheers,
Linda

Well, with the Roxanne's I sewed it immediately. Not a pin in sight, and with the walking foot I just "flew" around it. Today, if I ever get off here, I am going to time the binding of a QFK.

Where at hobby lobby did you find the tips and bottles? I have not had any luck in finding them.

Funny thing..... I have a lady friend who used to sew and teach alot of classes. She always hands me stuf that she is not using anymore due to the fact she is now involved in making glass and jewelry. Anyway. I went thru some of my stash things today and what did I find but this Roxeann glue stuff you all were talking about!!! lol Matter of fact she gave me several bottles of it.. Now I guess I know what it is for!

Judy, I found my bottles and tips in the paint and glue section, I think it was near the oil paints.

If you have access to medical supplies you can use a large syringe with a large needle. In my lab we had blunt needles and it works great. I know now a days is very hard to have access to those.

I've been using Elmers school glue stick...I think it is pretty good. For little spots I use a pencil with a broken tip/or a really dull pencil.
