I use this method on twin and below, with left over sanded board when we put down hardwood floors. I once used it on a double bed size, a grandmothers flower garden, and had to open the dining room table all the way open. I finished the GFG though, and it looks nice. i cut the boards 12 inches longer than the width of the quilt.

Having read about Sharon Schamber's videos and method for basting a quilt sandwich, I tuned to YouTube and watched both parts.
Like many instructional videos, the demonstration was done on fairly small pieces, which generally is MUCH MUCH easier than large quilts. So if you're doing a large quilt (100" or more) you'd need 9 or 10' boards...BUT ALSO wouldn't you need a 9 or 10' table? Or are you back to doing it on the floor? Thanks for your input. |
I know this sounds weird but I sandwich my quilts on my double size bed. I sue spray basting and section the quilt in fours. Works really well as floor has not worked for me in a long time. Make sure to lay down a old sheet on bed first. I use straight pins to secure layers, like a pin cushion.
