not the way my mother did it

Ran out of quilt spray.  Ran to local store and discovered it had doubled  in price.  Yikes!!!  When mom made quilts : her and her mother would spend hours getting the top, batting and bottom straight. Then another hour putting in safety pins so the darn thing wouldn't wiggle.   Not anymore:  I just use basting spray and no pins.  This new stuff:  Sullivans:  talked about a few  classes ago   is repositional and re-glues itself by steam.  Also doesn't stain.  Worth the investment.  Took 1/2 the time to straighten and get out wrinkles.  Maybe I need stock in it.  Man!!  when am I going to learn to put away my cables.  Have photos.   Back in 10 or 20 min  when I can find the frickin' cable  for camera to laptop.  Found in the darn camera bag:  lesson:  don't clean sewing room.  After class came home and shaded tiger.  He looks like coming off fabric and my own photo.  Going to mount in frame.
