Wonderful tutorial, it is challenging when you're working alone on a quilt however you've made it look easier. Thank you. I'm definitely going to get 100%cotton batting soon," Cotton sticks to cotton ". Thank you again for sharing your gift with us.
You are stating to put the rough stubby side up and it is the other way around. It is the wrong side and it is placed face down against wrong side of backing. Smooth side goes up against your quilt top.
This must be the best tutorial I have every seen. Your instructions are clear and easy to follow. No, I am not a novice but have made many quilts in my 62 years! I wish I had know all these tips when I was starting out. It would have made my life so much easier. I am currently basting a quilt as I watched this. Thank you.
Marvelous, phenomenal instructions. The time and care in making this..WOW👍👍 A quick q...I have a pool noodle, on smaller quilts dies it keep the sandwich straight?
You always make excellent quilt tutorials. I have always wanted to use a minky fabric as a backing. But I have no idea how to ✂ cut a straight line on such wiggly fabric, let alone get an accurate straight of grain fold. Would you please consider making a video using minky fabric & how to baste it flat. And can it have a cotton, pieced top & what type of batting to consider. Any & all tips would be appreciated. 😇
I have quilter a queen sized quilt on a home sewing machine, but it was not easy. If you want to do that, you need to think about your space setup in addition to your sewing machine. Ideally you will have a sewing machine with the largest throat you can afford, that sits level with your tabletop in a desk designed for sewing machines. This will help reduce the amount of weight you have to move around. Also, having extensions on your table either built in or rigged, like setting a card table up behind the table, will help as you can keep most of the weight of the quilt on the table instead of it dragging to the floor.
@@QuiltAddictsAnonymous I just might have to do a quilt as you go. I have an long card table and I'm using my dining room table but my machine is not sunk where it would be level. I might look into renting a longarm. I need to look up quilt shops in my area and find out. Thank you.
I've sewn many a queen size quilt on my machine. Best tips are is to have plenty of tables to hold the weight of your quilt & a quilting design that is manageable for your skill level. If your a beginner consider a simple stipple where you don't have to change directions a lot & is forgiving. Don't try long amish feathers until you are comfortable w/ machine quilting. Just do it❗ Be brave. Everybody has to have their 1st one. You will see improvement over time. ☺
