I have the Roxanne Glue Baste and I like it very much. It's a little pricey but it does last a long time. If I ever use it up, I may wash out the bottle and refill it with Elmer's. I have used the Elmer's and I think it sticks as well as the Roxanne's. I like the bottle that the Roxanne's comes in. Someone posted a thread a while back about using the Elmer's gel glue. Haven't tried that one yet. She said she even used it on her hair when she ran out of hair gel. Don't think I'll try that one. I do use the glue sticks for applique and I like them alot.
