I remember my mom making glue and all I remember is the water , flour, salt & made homemade playdough kinda the same way #nostalgia . Thank you for this recipe 🤗
Right? My mom taught me how to make playdough too...lol..I believe we made a similar glue for paper mache...you are bringing back all the memories! Thanks for stopping by!
Love the way you have explained the differnt options to solve some of the problems. I also watched a video where the lady gave it a thumbs down - could not get it to a spray only a stream. I think hers might have been in the time of cooking.
Thank you. We are so glad to help. The amount of cooking definitely does matter. Thank you for stopping by
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Do you have a video showing you using this spray on an actual quilt sandwich? That would be a good demonstration. Thank you for your video!
Sorry! I just found your other video! 😂
I was just going to respond to you!!! I'm glad you were able to find it! Happy Quilting!
hi, sorry 2 bother u again but did yr “gravy” get thick on the heat or after it cooled? i got 2 a thinner gravy consistency on heat (& i cooked it for a while) but not thick as u showed it after it was cool in the pyrex container. tku.
No bother at all. We don't work on Sunday's, so that was the delay. It isn't super thick, but it does tend to get a bit thicker when cooling.
Thank you for the video, I really want to try this. Can I use this in a mister bottle instead of a regular spray bottle?
To be honest with you, I have never tried that. However, I will tell you that I personally wouldn't. It is a bit thicker than normal water, and I would encourage people to clean out the tubing and sprayer after use (not the whole bottle). The solution has stayed very usable for over 6 months. But, if you don't use it and it sits, the tubing can get clogged. As me how I know! LOL If you decide to try it, I would love it if let me know what your experience was. Thanks, Lisa, for stopping by and your awesome question! We are creative as quilters and very resourceful. Hearing the way people think allows for new ideas to do things!!
@HALO Inspirations, LLC thank you and I will let you know.
@@lisaalaniz1 Looking forward to hearing from you!!!
do u have the link for the ca quilters? i have looked but not found them. tku. good job on the. ideo!
Oh...that's a hard one as this is a few years ago...I did a quick search and didn't find anything, and I know what I'm looking for...I will give a bit more time to look for you early next week, and let you know if I can find them.
They want $30.00 for 505 at the sewing store here in Canada March 2023 😮
Oh my goodness!! $30.00 for a can?????
Is the rubbing alcohol the same one you sanitize your hands with
Thank you for asking Aileen. Yes you use everyday rubbing alcohol that you probably have laying around your home. You can get a free recipe in pdf format. It is listed in the description box below the video. Thank you for stopping by.
The rubbing alcohol she's using is Walmart's brand equate at 91%
Good luck!
Can this spray be used on clothes on your laundry?
This is not for laundering. It is a glue, basically, for basting a quilt.
Can I use this mixture with machine embroidery too
I am not sure. Try a small area to test it. Keep in mind this method will need to dry completely before you can use it. That is a good question. Please post the results if you try.
Thank you. I will

i watched another lady make and test and she found it would only come out in a stream. she gave a thumbs down, do you think it needed more alcohol or it was cooked too long.
I'm not sure about her recipe or her sprayer. One thing that some people find is that in time (weeks to months) their sprayer may get clogged. I still haven't had that experience either. My homemade spray baste truly does come through my sprayer in a mist, not a stream. The rubbing alcohol will separate from the other mixture when it sits. However, I just walk by every now and again and give it a shake. I just went with my bottle, when you asked this question, and sprayed into the sink. All is well! So, I am truly not sure where her bad experience came from. But, at least she tried it!!! It is not very expensive to make...so, definitely worth a try! Some like it and some don't. But we never know unless we try. Thanks for sharing!
Hi, on the spray bottle, there is a nozzle at the end from where the liquid comes out, if you tighten it enough, then the STREAM will turn into MIST. Hope this helps😇❣️
I add more alcohol little by little until it sprays rather than stream, and it works fine. I don’t think you want to get it diluted down to a mist, I think if it were that thin it wouldn’t work well to baste. I use cheap vodka instead of rubbing alcohol, so the smell is less strong. I love how this washes out in the first wash in a way 505, etc. will never really do.
how do u know if it is actually 3 or 4 t
Tblsps? tku
I love it! I read recipes, and don't do well with a pinch or a bit of something...so, for 3-4 Tbspn, I do 3 Tbspn and then probably 1 tspn. The extra doesn't have to be exact. Or even 3 heaping Tbspn. That is better. Thank you for asking! I think just like you...bottom line is at least 3, but not more than 4.
@@HALO_Inspirations tku so much.. u did a great job explaining the little extra hints.
@@chauneceyomally Ty for letting us know that! You are the best!
If rubbing alcool is toxic, as a 71 y.o. and I was a R.N. nurse for 37 years and we always use rubbing alcool and I am in good health. At evening shift, we were making back massage to all patients, and no ventilation! But what is the purpose of the rubbing alcool in the mixture??
I am very much with you on the rubbing alcohol. I too am an RN, and have used it plenty. However, the label on the bottle does say, "Use only in a well-ventilated area; fumes may be toxic." There are other warnings, but just went with that. Also, the CDC has information about toxicity of rubbing alcohol They list the symptoms as, "irritation eyes, nose, throat; drowsiness, dizziness, headache; dry cracking skin; In Animals: narcosis" with the exposure routes listed, "inhalation, ingestion, skin and/or eye contact." Again, I have zero problems with it, but I have to be understanding of warning labels and some people do experience negative outcomes. As far as why it is in there: You can use a vodka instead. I only have educated guesses. First, the rubbing alcohol/vodka helps with evaporation of the moisture to give the "glue" a better product for your quilt sandwich that also does not gum up your quilting. Without the alcohol, the glue is a bit pasty and definitely cannot be sprayed through a spray bottle for application onto your quilt sandwich. Also, without the alcohol, the mixture continues to thicken as it sits. The alcohol allows you to keep it for months with lumping or thickening. You just shake and spray, after it does sit for a bit.
Thank you "sew" much for asking this question! I do like the way your brain works, and completely understand where you are coming from! Happy Quilting to you!
Does it go bad?
Not that it will go bad, but apparently it will get clumpy-like. I haven't had that happen, but I don't keep it forever...the longest I have had a bottle is 4 months. I try to use it up.
Why on earth did it take so long to cool? That's a bit extreme if you ask me. Hmmm, ,so i have to find the video of you using this spray
The time it took to cool was an approximate. Of course each circumstance will be different. You will need to use your own judgement. Thank you for stopping by.
It'll be great if you stop repeating yourself you're dragging on too much
Thank you for the suggestion. May your day be fantabulous, and thank you for stopping by!
