I learned to spray baste-no pins!
I have found that these tips work for me when I use a six foot folding table to layer my quilts for quilting.
Iron the batting and spread on table. Arrange top of Quilt over batting. Work with half at a time to spray baste. Repeat with backside. Anyone's advice/tips appreciated. |
This is my method as well. The only I add is after the top is spray basted to the batting, I press it again and then add the backing and repeat with ironing from the backside. The advantage is you can use less spray baste and it holds just as well.
|
May I ask which spray you use?
|
I also put a safety pin on the center side of each layer. That way I know I am getting the layers put together and lined up good.
|
I use the ironing board spray basting technique. It works very well.

I loved spray basting until I discovered basting with Elmer's Washable School Glue. Now I am addicted to Elmer's it is so much more secure than spay basting. I spray baste the same way you do. The process is pretty much the same way with Elmer's. There are a number of good YouTube videos to teach you the technique if you are interested.
Spray basting is perfect for larger or smaller quilts and perfect for baby quilts as long as the quilt is washed before given as a gift. Looks like you have a handle on the spray basting. |

No tips as I don't spray baste often, but curious what batting you use, that you actually iron it?
