What is Basting Spray

Quilting has been a hobby for several eras. The process is simply sewing two or more layers of fabric together and in return you will have a thicker padded material. The same with any other hobby, people are always trying to simplify the process. Rather than basting by hand, basting spray is the answer.

Basting with Adhesive

If you’re new to quilting, you may not know what basting exactly is. Well, it’s simple. It’s a temporary stitch used to hold fabric together. They are long stitches that can easily be removed. The benefit of using a basting stitch is so that you have greater accuracy. If you decide you don’t like where a seam is, you can remove it if you used a basting stitch.

However, an easier solution is the basting spray. Instead of using an actual stitch or pins, the spray will hold your fabric together. Then, when you’re done with your quilt and happy with your seams, you simply can wash the glue out.

You can always reposition the layers too. Basting sprays make quilting easy.
