Has anyone ever done any major gluing of fabric over a large area? Any tips? And suggestions of good glue? I've only done very small things, like cards, and I used PVA glue from the craft shop.
I have just ordered the 70 metres of cloth which will will be needed for our tent room project. 35 metres of a fairly light bump (interlining) and 35 metres of this one

The boarding out of the room is almost complete. The boards have been carefully cut to size, scored to flex, and screwed up, which has taken 6 months!! Each board will now be unscrewed, glued with bump, and then covered in the top cloth which I'm hoping can just be glued at the back and pinioned into position with the screws. I'm a bit wary of using too much glue for the top cloth on the room facing side as it may leak through and alter the cloth?
Might this be suitable?

I know there are contractors doing exactly this technique of fabric on the walls and I wish I could talk to one!!
