I do this when I glue my bindings with Elmer's glue. It bonds really well. If you have a small craft iron this would be perfect. Love this piece and also the churches.

And the couple times it did they refunded the purchase price or when they sent the wrong product told us to keep it and promptly shipped the correct item.

It's a temporary adhesive that irons out. You have to be mindful of what you are ironing as you go or you might iron out the adhesive and have to start over (ask me how I know!). It's a small can, but the can seems to go a long way. I know you and Mike are counting down to retirement. I only have one more week and then I get to spend more time in the sewing room!

It is sticky and not acid. I buy it (from amazon prime!) in a box of thirty for about 15.00. I works just like the Sewline pencil glue except for being cheaper and in a wider tube. I used the sewline at first but it is so expensive-I went thru 5$ worth of glue in an afternoon. Also the elmers keeps the applique in place but unlike roxannes, it is easy to pull up and repostion which is something I do after all my pieces are completed. It is a win-win! Sorry about your amazon prime trials. We also depend on them as we live in the back of beyond. However, we have never yet had in about 25 yrs of ordering from amazon a single problem. The worst was a package of pecans whose box had opened in shipping-we were promptly refunded and sent a new box of nuts free. However, Amazon has been changing its vendor system so there are some problems like amazon saying the item is prime when it ships thru a vendor who has no clue. We recently ordered household items from amazon pantry and found this was a loser-you can get better prices going thru ship and save. My 2 cents for what it is worth. Your fabrics and your new pattern are really great!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06844124404215583301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-60508650440721123302016-11-10T10:35:30.328-08:002016-11-10T10:35:30.328-08:00I had only tried "Prime" once or twice w...I had only tried "Prime" once or twice when it was as a free trial and decided it wasn't going to be worth it for me. Of course, most of what I order from Amazon is for my Kindle or my MP3 player, so no shipping anyway! I do order physical things form time to time, but generally, they are purchases on a whim and I can wait for them. <br />I hear your frustration about the glues. Can't things be simple, ever? <br />Good luck with it all, I will be here waiting for your results and commentary!claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16572555442321120647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-54569530416087834352016-11-10T10:02:51.564-08:002016-11-10T10:02:51.564-08:00I have heard some of my quilty friends say that pl...I have heard some of my quilty friends say that plain old Elmer's school glue works well for fabric.
