A Quilter's Must Have!Dec 05, 2009
I use lots of starch in my quilting - especially with making miniature quilts. Have tried many spray starches (aerosol and non-aerosol) over the years, and have always tried to be frugal. Many quilters raved about Mary Ellen's Best Press when it came out a few years ago, but I wasn't impressed, especially given the exhorbitant pricing.
One day while going through my local grocery store, I discovered Niagara's Non-Aerosol Spray Starch - a 22 oz bottle for only $1.99. WOW! And, it comes with a nice linen scent. Tried it out and haven't bought any other kind since. It doesn't flake either.
I've posted reviews about Best Press which I HAVE tried out (at my local quilt store) and which I do NOT recommend. Most quilters tend to be frugal. Using Best Press is NOT frugal - its cost (for the gallon refill) is .53 cents per ounce! The 6 oz spray bottle at $4.09 is a whopping .68 cents per ounce!
Niagara Non-Aerosol Spray Starch is a much less expensive option - $1.99 for 22 oz - or .09 cents per ounce (the price I pay at my local grocery store). It doesn't flake either - though I've tried to make it... And, the non-aerosol Niagara comes with a really nice linen scent. So, you can be eco-friendly, budget friendly, avoid that awful flaking and get a nice fresh scent.
If I were to buy 22 oz of Best Press my cost would be about $11.66. I can buy the 22 oz Niagara and have enough left over for a yard of my favorite quilt fabric! I won't waste my money on Best Press. I'd rather buy Niagara (non-aerosol) AND fabric.
It would be nice if Amazon would carry this directly and offer same or similar prices that I get at my local grocery store (nationwide chain). Niagara Non-Aerosol Spray Starch, 22 oz (Pack of 6) - see link for picture - offered by 3rd party seller through Amazon, but too much $.
