    I like your quilt ! Great pattern and colors. I experimented using Elmer’s glue on a large table runner I had just finished. I hand quilt and found that the glue was not a problem for my “between needle”. I did reinforce with some well-placed pin basting, but now I don’t think that was necessary. I did not use an iron. I let the glue set for about 24 hrs. That was all it needed here in hot, dry Arizona. This method worked well. I’ll try it on a larger quilt next.

    I have used this method and it worked great. No more spray adhesive for me. Just a suggestion - put the glue first on the batting and not the fabric (both for the backing and the top) then spread it just a bit with a spatula or something like that. I have noticed that this will significantly decrease the “bleed through” of the glue into the fabric. Thank you for this excellent tutorial.

      I use this method, with a smaller stream of glue and on the batting instead of the fabric. I give the quilt at least an hour to dry completely after ironing, and I've never had any problems with gumming up my machine.

    I have done this method and it was good. I mix 50/50 of Glue to Water. Then use a foam brush to spread it so it is more even. Your method seems to be thick and is why it would have gone through the outside of the fabric. Just a suggestion. Your quilt is beautiful.

    I just glue basted for the first time and it worked WONDERFULLY. I will probably never baste any other way again. I put the batting down and put the glue on the batting and gently pressed the quilt back smooth over it then flipped and repeated with quilt top. I used Elmers straight from bottle and got no bleed through, but I practiced first on some scraps to get my speed right so I'd have a thin line of glue. I did get a few globs and quickly spread them with a small piece of cardboard. No issues with the needle while I machine quilted it on domestic. So incredibly happy with the results. Didn't try blue basting the binding.

  • @grannybirdbirdsong1274

    Works better to put the batting down first, apply the glue then put the quilt back over the glued batting and smooth. Then turn the whole thing over, apply glue to the batting again and smooth the top over that.

    I used to glue baste. Now I use fusible tape/webbing and baste on my design wall. I also glue baste my binding and….I glue baste my quilt blocks as I rarely use pins. One caution….if one leaves to large a bead of glue to dry it can cause sewing issues as it becomes hard. This will happen if you don’t iron as the iron will flatten out the bead. I love glue. And if you are doing production phasing of your work glue will allow you to pre assemble and then pedal to metal sewing without futzing with pins

    In the past, I used white glue to affix patches on my husband's uniforms before sewing. I never had problems with gumming up my sewing machine. I have thread basted my quilt projects in the past but have been thinking about using white glue to baste a current project. I will bear in mind that your basting soaked through in places.

    I was thinking of doing something similar with washable glue, but was thinking of diluting it with a little water, and brushing a very thin layer with a wide paintbrush. I too worried about the glue getting hard or jamming the sewing machine needle. Good to know this technique works. So much faster than pin-basting, and way cheaper than spray-baste!

    I heard you say that rayon and poly will melt when burned. Not entirely true. All Polyester is made from petroleum. It will certainly melt when set on fire, leaving behind hard little beads. Rayon, while not an entirely natural plant fiber, starts off with cellulose derived from assorted plant materials: wood, cotton waste, and others. When burned. it leaves behind ash. It’s somewhere between synthetic and natural. But it certainly doesn’t contribute to the micro-plastic pollution problem the way polyester does.

      Wellllll, this was on my feed and I thoroughly enjoyed! I recently heard one of the channels talking about Kona-said that no matter where you buy it- It’s the real Kona as they are the only maker. Now if someone knows otherwise I understand. I’m newer to the quilting world, so I’m taking in all kinds of info! Back in the day when I learned to sew material was material and only a handful of stores to sell it depending on the region of the U.S. you lived. The same was with thread, now Omgoodness it’s kind of confusing🥴. I also understood someone to say like you- as long as you enjoy it, if you’re not entering it into completions sew, sew, sew. Love the product and use it. So maybe y’all could weigh in on this. Thank You ❤️😀
