June Tailor JT440 Quilt Basting Spray, 10 ounce can Blue

I've been using this stuff for several years to spray baste small-ish sewing projects. I just ordered two cans to do my first Queen-sized quilt. First: The formula has changed!! It now smells strongly of CANDY. Yes, candy! If you're sensitive to smells, this will not be a good thing, but it's a pleasant enough smell to quilt to. I feel like this new formula is stickier too. One thing to note- it took 1.5 cans to attach the pieced top and backing to the batting. It could be that I used too much, but the spray is very fine, so it's hard to know if you're getting enough, though the fine spray is a GOOD thing (no boogers of adhesive!). I washed my quilt and it crinkled up nicely but still smells like candy, so I'm going to wash it again. I just read now that using a cotton/poly blend batting means you may have to dry clean it. Oops! I'll definitely use 100% cotton on my next one! Overall, very pleased with this spray and would pay DOUBLE for the relative ease of basting a large quilt vs. pin basting!! I still used pins along the perimeter as I didn't want to get too much sticky overspray onto the excess batting (that's nice to have to maneuver the quilt while quilting). Oh- and NO shifting. NO puckering (as long as you remember that you still have to sew at slow/medium speed with your walking foot and pull the fabric reasonably taut with your hands flat, on either side of the presser foot.). I'll definitely be stocking-up!

I have used this for quilting and it is great. Keeps everything together well even if you pull it apart and reposition it stays in place. I have sprayed 3 small entrance rugs on the steps in my motorhome and it keeps them secure so no one slips. Great product and easy to use.

Love this brand as it works very well for basting my small quilts together. All sprays are a bit messy so use in an area that can be cleaned easy and open your window. Smell can get strong. I set up tables in our garage to baste my quilts.

Works great

The item itself is excellent. I make a lot of quilts, and June Tailor basting spray is my preferred basting spray. I gave it 4 stars because Amazon seems to only be able to get it from one seller, and that seller rarely delivers on time. The carrier often has to return the packages to the seller before it even gets to me, presumably because the cans are not packed securely, but I can't say that for certain. The seller is then very slow at refunding my money. I wish I could just get it directly from Amazon.

I originally bought 2 cans at Walmary. The label colors were different, but the labels said the same thing. The white label was a perfect amount of adhesive, no odor at all, easy to work with, and didn't gum up the needle. I did a 60"x72" lap quilt with 3/4 can. I used the blue label can next. It was like a completely different product. The adhesive was way too sticky, the smell was strong, and it was very hard to work with compared to the first can. It didn't gum up the needle though. I only order the white label cans now. I have quilted for years, always pinning the quilt sandwich. After using this on a couple of quilts, I don't see myself pinning again. You wash the quilt when it's done, then iron it. It looks and feels great.

Great spray.

I’ve had this in my storage cabinet for a while. Today I needed something to adhere my batting to my quilt top and I have to say I doubt I’ll ever use anything other than this in the future. It had no odor, there was no overspray if used properly and it held pieces perfectly for quilting. I am so impressed! Definitely 5 stars.
