I will try to take pics... I don't have anything that needs to go up right now.. might have to demonstrate with a regular sheet :)
Yes, I'm a hand-quilter, not machine quilter. I'm pretty lazy, I want to skip all the "steps" and just quilt.. so the quilt police are probably going nuts right now!

She has a web site but it is really expensive to join. If anyone has trouble and is really interested you can PM me. I have a video I would share.

Size of quilt doesn't matter--the board needs to extend beyond the width of quilt for at least an inch. I have two sets of boards. Bed boards work fine. I covered mine with fabric. For a large quilt it would be easier if you had a friend help-one on each end. Also, a chair with casters is good. My suggestion is to try it with a wall or lab size quilt first.
