Wait now, what's this sorcery I see on these frames?! I've always used thumb tacks to set the quilt up for quilting. How and where did you find frames that could be used with straight pins? What kind of frame is this, and how do I turn mine into such easy pieces?
Hi, these frames were homemade using pine wood slats with a fabric strip nailed to it so you can use pins to attach your quilt. I have a video showing how to make your own frames: ruclips.net/video/FEHUiVevEsc/видео.html! You can make 5-foot, 6-foot, or longer frames! I love mine! Thanks for watching, and go and make yourself some! You'll never regret it!
I love these videos, too. Luckily, I can tune out the birds. What I'm having trouble with is doing this for a full size quilt. Very awkward. I wonder if there are different instructions or tips for piecing together a full/queen quilt.
I enjoyed the video. Can I use quilting frames to tie a quilt if I plan to finish the quilt with a mock binding? If so, how do I attach the quilt top to the frame since the back is larger than the top of the quilt.
Hi! Whether you're tying a quilt or hand stitching, the layout process is the same. On the frame, center and pin the bottom fabric. It will hang over the edges, but that's OK. Then on top of that, place the batting and top fabric, centering each and pin securely. When you're finished, just unpin, and bind however you'd like. Did I understand correctly? If not, please let me know! I hope this helps!
I purchased the wood from the local hardware store and made the frames myself. I've made a video of how I did this here: ruclips.net/video/FEHUiVevEsc/видео.html Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for watching! The wood I used is pine, and you can use lengths anywhere from 5 foot long boards (1"x3"), to 10 foot or 12 foot long boards, depending on the size of your quilt top. The fabric I used to attach onto the frame is an old sheet, folded over, and cut to just wide enough to fit on the board with a little extra room; so the fabric can be anything you have on hand. You can even piece the fabric together to run the length of your boards. I attached the fabric to the boards using a staple gun. But you can also use thumb tacks. I hope this helps, and good luck making your own frame! If you have any other questions, please let me know! Thanks again for watching!

I'll try again later...noise in background ( birds) are annoying coupled with the sound quality is just not working for my nerves and patience right now.
You repeat yourself way too much.... Next time do the video without sound then add the instructions on after voice over. ... people can plainly see what you are doing... I just muted you.. Anyone who sews can visually see what your intentions are..
I love hearing the birds! ❤️ Thank you, this helped so much!
Thanks for watching and thanks for the feedback! I’m glad the video was useful to you!
What a great video. So much useful information. So good to know you can make your own frame and properly attach the quilt to it.
Thank you! I haven't seen any other videos of how to make your own frame, so I'm glad this helps!
I am so happy I found this video!! It sure helps me out! I love the birds!!!
Thank you!
I love this demonstration! I've bookmarked it and use it every time I quilt! Thank you!
Excellent directions...I haven't quilted in ages so this is a perfect video for me. Thank you!!
Thank you for watching! I'm glad they could be of help!

Thank you... and I love hearing the birds, they are so sweet!
Love your videos. You are a awesome teacher. I will have to find out whether we get those c clamps here.
Thank you
Thank you! The C-clamps should be available at a hardware store, or online, maybe. Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial!

Yes. You understood correctly. Thanks for your input.
Where did you get your boards or did you make them?

Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
how do you put the frame together before you can quilt
What kind of wood is the frame made of? How long should the frame pieces be? What kind of fabric is attached to the frame? How is the fabric attached?

Turn your dryer off
It is not a dryer...sounds like a grandfather clock.
Too .u h background noises
Background noises
Damn birds in the background,driving me mad. Really puts me off what she is saying.
Your problem with birds is ridiculous. I could hear every word she said!
You repeat yourself way too much.... Next time do the video without sound then add the instructions on after voice over. ... people can plainly see what you are doing... I just muted you.. Anyone who sews can visually see what your intentions are..
Thank you for the advice!
