Default 2 quilt finishes with Elmers glue
I finally tried the Elmers school glue for basting, and I love it. No puckers or tucks on the back.
The colorful quilt is called Seeing Squares by Empty Bobbin.
The one with the black diamonds is my version of the MSQC diamond rail fence (I only used 2 rails per block instead of 3).
Now that I have discovered the glue basting, I hope to make myself get more quilts quilted.

These are really nice. I'm lost on what the Elmers glue technique is though. Could you explain it for me? Thanks so much

Both are great, but I really like the colors in rail fence.

I tried glue basting for the first time this weekend and I am hooked. I love how it works and how inexpensive the glue is.
