SPRAY BASTING
While I am happy to spray baste machine quilted quilts, I am nervous about spray basing hand quilted quilts. Does the basting spray drag the needle when hand quilting.
I don't have a big wall to spray baste on and can't use the floor as my knees are shot, I have been laying out on a table and basting the centre section and then moving across the quilt until it is fully basted.
Does anyone have any ideas on this.Tags: None

i have the same prob like you (with my knees) so i do use Sharon schamber way of basting but instead of sewing i spray glue.
i use old newspaper and/or old shower curtain under before i spray so i got no resedu all over. i do that on a table.
i use the glue spray on every thing hand and machine quilting - just fine - be careful thou not to spray too much.
good luck

I don't like the smell at all and it does get inhaled alittle but it works great. I don't know about hand quilting. I forget where I saw this but agreat idea was to row up your top onto small plastic pipe once sprayed you can roll out the top alittle at a time! I thought this was agreat idea.

When it's time to quilt, I have always struggled with pinning, basting, etc. When I saw the Spray Basting method videos by Patsy Thompson, I gave it a try and I absolutely love it. It's amazing how the "sandwich" stays together so nicely. I pin the "sandwich" on my design wall (lap quilt size) on my off days. Now how do I get my stitches all consistently the same size?!? Still working on it. Connie in California

Originally posted by dlacefieldI tried Patsy's method on a baby quilt with flannel backing. The flannel back was wrinkled when I got the top on. Tried twice and still can't get it to work. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks for any help.
