Do the wonder under dots allow sewing movement - like any fusible if its a heavy duty one they dont move, but light weight ones allow a bit of movement. I find, like any basting and quilting, the 2 keys seem to be - when you baste make sure its all as flat as it gets, and when quilting use the right pressure foot, usually my walker. If freehand, use the freehand foot. If I follow those rules I have very little issue with shifting or puckering.

And, since nothing in life is perfect - with the wonder under dots, if you keep them smaller than an inch, (i tend to go for about 1/2 to 3/4 an inch max) then you can do a quick reposition as needed, even under the machine.
I tried to find the site for the glue sticks and, of course, can't remember. I guess 'bulk' was the wrong wording. I bought a dozen for about $10 which was a good price. I hope I can find the site again and, when I do, will post the link.

And thanks for the insight of the wonder under dots. As for hole punchers, I'll bet the scrapbooking area of a craft store would have some sort of punch that size.
