As some of you know, I'm on a quest to find a quick and easy way to baste a quilt. In a couple of previous posts I asked for suggestions and received some great one which I wanted to compile and repost so I'd know exactly where all the info was stored. (In other words, this is the only way I can keep up with it)
- Marla's Crafts says that she uses pinmoors which I will have to research a little more before I purchase any. She stated that the pinmoors are a bit pricey but she likes them more than safety pins.
- Deb uses 505 spray on her projects and only pins when she runs out of spray. I have, in the past used 505 spray so Deb jogged my memory.
- Tammy said that she uses pins to baste her quilts and has yet to find an easy and less time consuming way.
- Dena uses Sulky's kk2000 adhesive spray. She likes it because you only use a small amount and it doesn't harm the environment.
- Paula likes to thread baste her quilts. She uses a water soluble thread. I think that's neat and will have to try that one myself.
- Lefuntz uses 505 spray adhesive on small quilts and had never tried it on large quilt. She will also going to try out the pinmoors very soon.
- Doniene uses a spray to baste and then pins her quilts.
- Gene uses hairspray to baste his quilts and has a video to show how it's done.
Many thanks to everyone for your help. I have enjoyed hearing about your techniques and Gene's video which I hope everyone will take time to watch.
Now here's my first finish of July......machine quilted and bound. Can I get a whoop, whoop!!
