You’d think that basting would be basting. As I mentioned the other day, there are a couple of different kinds of basting. The other day I found that I can improve upon my glue basting.
I have been trying to manage my bunny ears. Until now I have basted so the diamond bunny ears are folded in the same direction. For triangles, I make sure I fold them in all different directions, so all of the bunny ears don’t end up in one location when sewing.

Recently, I saw a picture that someone posted of their glue basting and realized I could fold the bunny ears in.
Don’t ask me why I didn’t think of this before. I just didn’t.
I wasn’t quite sure how this would work out and I didn’t realize I could do it until I had only two diamonds and one triangle to fill in.

The overall technique works. There are no bunny ears to manage. (photo right: shows the piece half basted).
The only potential issue I see is that the area where the bunny ears would be are a lot thicker than the other areas. There are also several layers of glue. The triangle points are particularly thick.
We’ll see if that is an issue and I’ll report back.
