    Spray adhesive ??

    I was making an UQ with Clima and ripstop.
    I had to make relief cuts in the clima and then sew it to get my curve, then put it between 2 layers of nylon and pin it

    I was thinking if there was some spray adhesive that I could use glue my dart cuts in the clima insulation, then "glue-tack" it to the nylon prior to sewing.

    Any ideas or thoughts?

    Thanks,

    Sounds like a lot of extra work.

    If you have to hold everything together before sewing pins like you find in the sewing department work just fine to keep everything together in a single piece.

    I have been pinning, but it's a PITA. Was thinking spray, slap, spray, slap. I'm looking to streamline the UQ making.
    Now if I can find an easy way to sew the grosgrain on

    That's easy.

    I picked one up in 1-1/2" back when I was making Hammock Chair underquilts. Turned the nightmare of adding the channels into a 30 second per side job. I never tried it on anything larger than 5.0 APEX, but I would assume it'd work just the same,
