It will be done on time! I don't think doing floor basting is comfortable for anyone (especially past their teenage years ;) so I use my dining room table. I tape the backing down, lay the batting and quilt-top on top of that, then use the bent safety pins meant for holding the quilt together. So actually, I don't do any basting at all. It works for me since I'm mostly into tying my quilts these days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871178106159718986.post-11033460157082427022010-01-28T07:30:34.640-05:002010-01-28T07:30:34.640-05:00I will see if I can find the link I sent to Tonya ...I will see if I can find the link I sent to Tonya about basting. it will do what you need AND keep you off the floor. <br />It is called "pinless basting" but you could adapt the method to use pins I think. <br />http://www.sharonschambernetwork.com/free_area/videos/pinless_bast/index.htmlGene Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731141629634998152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871178106159718986.post-53483935825040813152010-01-28T06:26:02.621-05:002010-01-28T06:26:02.621-05:00Nice quilt.

I start with like 1/4 of a quilt on the table, the rest hangs off the table, and I sew/baste it in big stitches, then fold that over, and move more of the quilt sandwhich onto the table and so on, till I'm done. I've done 3 like that this week and no wrinkles on the backs. Maybe even use your kitchen table.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10580743027184050061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871178106159718986.post-10686833709053660492010-01-27T21:42:17.089-05:002010-01-27T21:42:17.089-05:00That is very lovely. sorry about your knees...hav...That is very lovely. sorry about your knees...have you thought about getting some long tables, put them side by side? That is if you have room? Other than that, the only other suggestion is that I come over and do it for you.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622919657309096651noreply@blogger.com
