You're almost to the end of the quilt when you realize that you've got more quilt top than backing. What to do now? Don't panic! In this video, I will show you the easiest way to add backing, right on the frame, without having to take the quilt off to do so. This video is a portion of my RU-vid Live Demo that streamed on October 22nd 2021. In that video, I also demonstrate how to add batting if you fall short (right on the frame).
Here's the link to that video if you'd like to see it:

I love how you measured with your hand. I've done that for years and my Dad always laughed at me about it. 😆

Thank you so much Kathy! January has seen more restrictions here in Ontario and I spent some time, while I wasn't allowed customers in the shop, purging and cleaning up. Now that restrictions are lifted, I wish I'd of spent that time quilting and making videos. lol.

Thank you a thousand times. This has saved me before and I have just rewatched for review to save my edge border again. I need to remind my friends to give me more backing :-)

A glove with a strong magnet attached to the back works perfect when pulling pins.

Well,🥴after like 7 years of longarming, I did this to myself last month and the solution was much less devastating than the fact that I had done that…didn’t realize “it happens” …was thinking How stupid can I be…great solution thank you❣️ you are so smart👍

Ty sewww much! I did this on my Gammill. I couldn't reach it from the front, so I rolled the Quilt backwards until I could reach to pin it from the back of the machine. I could have never done this without your video!

Thanks for this great tutorial! I've had to do this one time! But used my sewing machine and an ironing board set up high! A friend stood on the back side sliding the ironing board along as I sewed on the extra backing! It was quite the process! This is much better idea!!

Brilliant Solution! I have never considered this - just had a short back last week: I unzipped the whole quilt, cut a strip of backing from the sides, pieced them, then attached an extra 3" at the bottom. Urgh!
