| We bring odds and ends to exchange each month and this month we had three Tips that were noteworthy. # 1.This is the type of glue you use for gluing fabric. It needs to be washable the white school glue works also. http://quiltinggallery.com/2008/05/15/binding-with-elmers-school-glue/ # 2. These a a great replacement for your rotary cutter. Find them at Harbor Freight and they are a fraction of the cost. # 3. Spot Remover , Peg says it works great for all stains. |
