You have to do your edging anyway, so why not stitch the knitted piece on at the same time as you do your edging. I did not mean seperately.

Actually, it was the fabric glue that had me looking on the Herrschner's web site this morning. While there I found fabric glue in pens and sold as "glue dots." Not being a big user of glue, I don't know what they are like, but so long as they are drying clear, I think I will try one of them. I don't want to have to sew the knitting onto the back, I want some quick & easy method for doing it.
Is tacky glue the same thing as fabric glue? Thanks.
