I held out on spray basting for a long time (mainly because I didn't want to add any more expense to the process) but J persuaded me to try it a wee while back and I cannot imagine ever having the desire or patience to pin baste again. My results are so much better with the spray and because it doesn't take me hours upon hours to baste it I will actually get on with it now instead of avoiding the quilting because I didn't want to baste. I admire you for still pinning - but really I was so bad at it, spray has changed my basting life.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04968403337120714399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524960354656106962.post-60143418184607571332012-04-16T22:17:19.250+01:002012-04-16T22:17:19.250+01:00A definite sucess.
