Elmer’s Disappearing Purple School Glue Stick

A small but mighty helper for sewists, this Elmer’s Disappearing Purple Glue Stick is perfect for quilting and sewing projects. It goes on purple so you can see exactly where you’ve placed it, then dries clear within minutes for a neat, invisible finish.

Though designed for classrooms, quilters love this glue stick for its versatility. Use it to piece printed PDF patterns together, baste fabric for English paper piecing (like hexies!), hold hems in place before stitching, or secure layers in quilting. The smooth, mess-free application makes it an easy go-to tool for both beginners and seasoned makers.

Why sewists love it:

• 6g (0.22oz) size—perfect to tuck into your sewing kit

• Purple on contact, dries clear in 5 minutes

• Ideal for paper piecing, pattern prep, hemming, and quilting

• Washable, non-toxic, and acid-free—safe for fabric and family-friendly

• Provides a temporary hold without leaving sticky residue

• Sold individually from a bundled package

A simple, fuss-free tool that adds ease and joy to your sewing process—once you try it, you’ll wonder how you ever basted without it.
