    Default Using my hanging batting

    A couple of weeks ago I posted photos showing my new fabric room. My son hung the batting over a work table so I wouldn't have such a hard time cutting the batting. I finally got to try it out this morning, and let me tell you, if I could go back 4 or 5 years the first thing I would do would be to hang the batting somewhere! It was so quick and easy - unbelieveable. No backache, no aching knees, super! If you can, do this, it is well worth the effort! This was very easy and very inexpensive: hooks for ceiling, rope to run through the roll of batting, presto, done.

    Seeing the pictures lets me know you are safe after all the tornados that hit your area.
    Fun seeing the quilt against the batting so you know exactly where to cut it off.
