    Brook,

    That's how I spray baste as well, however, I only use it on smaller quilts so it's easier to manage. I prefer to pin baste on larger quilts. What a mess! I'm glad you're smiling, Helen. I don't think smiling would have been the scenario if it were me. Your quilt is very pretty,

    You are awesome! Lol we would be great mates I think, I use basting spray as well...... Hahaha.
    I have to spray up my third little quilt today, I am always finding ways to get myself into a jam
    Great photo - you have made my day. This learning curve we are on sometimes requires a great sense of humour and you sure have that in spades. Your quilt looks sensational

    I did this at my cottage and went for a swim, it wasn't all over my clothes, that outfit is tie dyed. So, when winter comes, what do I do? I don't have a lot of floor room. I know it can go to the guild and they will help pin it. That spray is easy but messy!

    Beautiful quilt top. Sorry, but I can't say the same for your hands and knees-LOL. Definitely something I would do though.
