I just use a washable school glue stick instead.
I'm pretty sure I wouldn't try a whole quilt with it. It does work great for holding small bits together. I've used it when making these circle blocks

Also great for auditioning applique locations. A little dab will hold the item in place and yet it's easy to pop off and reposition. The glue washes out easily.
