The Sew Easy Basting Glue Pen is a non-toxic fabric glue that holds pieces in place without pins or basting stitches. It forms a temporary bond that stays repositionable for up to 3 minutes, giving you time to adjust before it sets. Once your project is finished, the glue dries clear and washes out.
The twist pen design makes it easy to control how much glue you apply. Twist to advance the glue, then run a thin line along a seam allowance, hem, or appliqué edge. It's a handy way to hold binding in place before stitching, keep appliqué shapes from shifting, match points in tricky piecing, or secure a hem while you sew. The pen holds 0.21 fl oz.
Sew Easy notes that it works with most cotton and combination fabrics, so it's a good fit for quilts, appliqué, hems, and general craftwork. A light touch is all you need. It's a good idea to test on a scrap first, especially with delicate or specialty fabrics. Keep one by your sewing machine and another in your hand-sewing kit.
