    I'm trying it for the first time on a hand quilted quilt. So far so good.

    I don't hand quilt but people on here have used it. I'm sure it will be fine.

    Thanks for the info- I absolutely detest basting more than anything! I always wanted a product that would eliminate it and now I'm going to try it! I have heard to pin the edges but that's no big deal compared to all that hand basting!!

    I've used it for hand quilting many times. No problems. You can put something aside and go back days later and it's still basted. I'd say give it a try.
