Quiltah Mama

I am unable to post a picture currently, I only get an URL option. I wanted to post a picture of a product I discovered this past week. It's not a gadget, but a product that has changed my quilting. I have used 505 basting spray for many years, but we all know how expensive it is, and there are many threads on this form on other forms of home made basting spray or how to use Elmers school glue to baste. I went to our local Dollar Tree store in search of the Elmers school glue and found an adhesive spray. It was a 2 oz bottle made by Beacon Value. I unscrewed the cap, it looked and smelled like Elmers glue. I said why not, for a $1. I brought it home, made a sample sandwich with it, I ironed it, then I stitched the sample with no issues, I made a second sample and "washed" it in my bathroom sink. I was able to separate all three pieces with no issues. So I basted a throw size quilt 72x60" with the adhesive spray, I basted the back, laid out the batting, basted batting and laid out the top,then I ironed each section as I went along. I quilted the entire throw with no issues, no movement of fabric, no wrinkles/creases on backing, no gumming of the needle. I used two of the 2 oz bottles to baste this throw. I am just thrilled with this product. For $2, I basted a throw size quilt with no issues. This will become my go to for basting, no more 505 spray for me, which means more money for fabric. Also, this adhesive spray is a pump spray, not aerosol which I liked, no fumes to breath in. If you have a Dollar Tree in your area, it's worth a try, and if you Google it, it is available online.

I too have a bluetooth speaker in my quilt studio that I listen to music on while in there. I splurge and subscribe to Amazon music to be able to listen to anything I want, create different play list, and it's all add free.

Thank you Sewgood for the Odif "grippy" suggestion, already looked it up and have it in my Amazon cart. Can't wait to try it. Great thread, will continue to check in.
