Three years later and your video is still helping people. I am a new quilter and working in a very small space...on a 2' X 5' table (or my bed ) and this video was so very helpful. I can't thank you enough for sharing this trick with others.
Thank you so much for your video. I couldn't imaging how a POOL NOODLE could help me to quilt. It's better than the spray by a long shot, and better than kneeling on the floor to pin the layers together. Wow. Love it!!!
Started using pool noodles a couple of years ago and it changed the whole quilting experience. I bought a piece of dowel at the hardware store to extend the noodles, and I also use basting spray. Now, it takes less than 30 minutes to sandwich a quilt, and I don't end up with so many UFO's!
This is awesome. I have cats and this helped me to complete my quilt sandwich quickly without spending much time chasing cats or watching them watch me through the cat gate... lol. Also an awesome way to store my quilt sandwich until I complete the quilting on it! Thank you!!!
Could have fooled me too. The video is so well organized. I will be able to layer small and large queen size or twin size quilts. I am currently making 4 twin size quilts for the last of my great grandchildren. I have been dreading layering the twin quilts and baby quilts. Now I'm excited to get started.
I have struggled with this step of quilt making for years. Thanks to your tutorial I know I will be able to do this on my own. Thank you for showing me how.
I loved your video. I am now in a wheelchair and unable to get down on the floor to sandwich a quilt any longer. My daughter just bought me a rolling cutting table recently and this method will work perfectly in the limited space I have available. Thank you for sharing.
This is a FANTASTIC idea!! I agree....no distracting music or noise, and I could hear you very clearly. Your instructions were very clear as well, and I have added your video to my very first QUILTING folder to save for later so I can see it again. I've been quilting for many years, and I have done so much of this on the floor, but it's hard to get it all smoothed out that way. So, thank you for this great idea!
This video has rocked my world!!! How could I not know this technique?!?!?!? I have been quilting for 25 years and I have struggled getting all 3 layers all spread out either on the floor (knees won't do that anymore!) or trying to find a table big enough!! Now I can do this and it will be so much easier!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing this!!!! This is going to change my life!!!!!
Thank you for this awesome tutorial. It was great and also love that there is no distracting music or noise in the background. You sounded like a pro. Congratulations on your first video. 😊
This is your first video? You seem like you have been doing this a long time. No distracting music, you speak clearly and you were very organized. Great job. Love the idea of the pool noodles. Thank you!
Very helpful video... right to the subject... no time wasted in the demo. Should do more. This will not only save my knees, but my sanity!! Thank you!!
I just bought my pool noodles today. My knees are getting too old to crawl on the floor, not to mention getting up off floor lol. I’m doing mostly small donation quilts now, so this should be just what I need !! Thanks for the inspiration!!
Wow. This is the best method I have seen.....thank you soooooo much. I will be at the dollar store tomorrow. And passing this on to my Quilting buds. Thank you so much,,,,,Claudia.❤️🇺🇸🇮🇹
Thanks so much for showing us this. I can only hope that I'll be able to remember this down the road if I ever get a quilt top down and ready to quit. I love it.
This will keep me off the floor. The older you get the harder it is to get down and work on the floor. As a matter of fact I can barely get down long enough to pick something up. I can't say thank you enough.
Thank you for sharing noodle quilting. Wonderful idea. No one would know this was your first video. Smooth and clear start to finish. Awesome. Have a blessed day. Kaye
So clever. Thank you. Enjoy your calm,clear presentation. Helpful suggestions about which pins and where to place them. Kind of exciting to see you unroll the separate parts and how easily the sandwich is created by this method. Awesome.
Your video is so clear with perfect visual & spoken instructions. Been hand quilting since the '60s, this 1 video has made my life so easy and effortless. Thank you
What a great idea for when you're limited with space- as I bet a lot of us are, lols. I often don't even have floor space available, in our tiny tiny house. I love it! Thanks for sharing that, it was very straight forward and practical.
I am sorry I didn't see this sooner. You did an excellent job of showing and explaining the process of layering. You made it look so Easy, I will definitely try this. THANK YOU AGAIN.
As a beginner quilter I'm glad I came across your video early. Have had trouble with limited space getting this right so it will how I do my next project. Thanks so much.
Your suggestion to use a pool noodle for making the quilt sandwich is awesome. It's light weight and rolls up reasonably small for better fit in my home sewing machine. (I usually roll my entire sandwich on one pool noodle.) Also, I agree with Irma Gonzalez's point about no distracting music in the background. I understand that noise is part of recording, but I really dislike added music for the sake of I don't know what. Background music often makes hearing the speaker much more challenging for me, so thanks for not putting it in. Hope others will follow your excellent approach. Please keep posting videos.
Thank you! I too am getting too old for floor crawling. I have a long dining table that will work swell for me. Also, I use a tacking gun with a plastic grid guide. Your video was right on. So clear and concise. I’m glad I was able to join the other quilters who commented. Thanks again.
I wish I had seen this video last week! I've fought the battle of sandwiching my first quilt this week...queen size. Oh my this has made me think... Never again, until now! So helpful!! Thank you for sharing.
What a great idea! I've never seen this used but I knew pool noodles were handy for things. This would be especially nice for someone with a smaller work table. Thank you for this tutorial and the great idea.
Thank you so much. I’m a beginner quilter and finding it fiddly to sandwich, especially with a small workspace. I don’t like laying my work on the floor. This is so clever and very neat ❣️❣️❣️
Oh my gosh, I wish I would have seen this yesterday. It took me forever to sandwich a twin sized quilt and not to mention my back pain afterwards. This would have been so much faster and less painful on my back.. Thank you for this video. I'm going to try it on my next quilt sandwich.
What an elegant solution that means that I don't have to do this on my floor. I am doing this for the first time and LOVE LOVE LOVE this approach!!! Now to the pool supply!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have been a piecer until now and have several small quilt to be finished. I did send out one bigger quilt to be done by a LAQ. It was expensive. This has been so helpful. Clear and very easy to follow.
I used this method on a quilt that was 78 x 98 and while the rolling and pinning went well, I ended up sending the quilt to a long-armer because I couldn't handle the bulk on my small machine. It's way easier than getting down on the floor or flaying the layers out and trying to get them centered. Good luck!
Fantastic idea, well represented. Tomorrow I am going to buy 3 noodles. I also like the fact that there is no distracting music that makes me watch the video 2 or 3 times. Great job, looking forward to seeing more. thanks for showing us.
Absolutely brilliant! Buying noodles tomorrow to finally finish son's quilt. And about 5 other quilt tops. I HATE making a quilt sandwich! This looks to be a neat easy way! Great video!
Thank you for sharing - definitely a very easy way to control the layers - easier than trying to keep the quilt from slipping off the table - used to tack on the floor as well but then the family tend to walk across the quilt, we’ve come a long way since the days of the large quilting frames taking up most of our living room - happy quilting 🌟
This was wonderful for me to see. It solved a problem I have been dealing with trying to get quilts basted on my own on my kitchen table. Thank you so much.
Very nice video! You're a natural! I'm getting back into quilting after 25 years of not! I love this method! I can't tell you how many hours I spent on my hands and knees basting quilter together so I could eventually hand quilt them on my lap in a hoop!! Oh the modern conveniences we have these days!! Thanks for sharing this method again.
Hi, I took a very long break from quilting and it’s certainly changed a lot. No rotary cutters when I started in the mid 70s. My first quilts were hand pieced (no machine) and quilted in a hoop. I loved it back then, but no patience for that now. I don’t recall how I sandwiched large quilts back then, but the pool noodles are so helpful, even for little ones. Good luck.
@@peterrosenfeld3053 hey Peter, I recall how I sandwiched quilts, on my hands and knees with babies around between diapers and feedings!! Oh and the cutting, definitely with scissors.......one piece at a time!!
Brilliant and so simple and affordable. I was using wooden boards but they are not long enough and so heavy. This is such a great idea!!! THANK YOU so much for sharing.
Great idea, thanks! Excellent job for your first video! When pinning layers together I use a regular teaspoon from my table service, slip the edge under the point of the pin as you're bringing it up thru the layers and it goes thru the layers and slides up the pin so much easier & faster. Saves your fingers too. Takes a tiny bit of practice with first few to "get in the rhythm" but worth it.
Thank you very much. This is a very handy tip. I’m a new quilter and have just finished my first quilt. It was a baby quilt but your little tip will come in handy for my next quilt. You did a wonderful job explaining the process.
First of all, congratulations on your first video Great job! You have saved my back, my knees, and whatever parts of my 70 year old body that does not want to crawl around the floor making quilt sandwiches! I cannot thank you enough for this fabulous procedure which I plan on using quite a bit Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
Loved your video. I have been using a similar method with lengths of 4”x4” timber. Pool noodles look much kinder, lighter and softer to work with. Never would have thought to change my method but I will be heading out to grab some today. Great first video, would not have known as it was very professional and easy to watch. 👍
Thank you for doing this tutorial. You did a great job for your first one! I've been curious about how to use the noodles to do this. I've been quilting 28 years and I love learning all the new little time savers! 👍 great job!
I loved this! I am disabled and have a hard time getting around my fabric & table, this is going to help me so much in putting my quilts &whatnot together ! ❤❤❤❤
What an amazingly simple idea! I have such a problem getting everything centered correctly while making "quilt sandwiches" and I've had to unpin and start over more than once over the years. I can see this technique taking a lot of frustration out of the process. Thanks for sharing!!
I am brand new to quilting and this is the best method I have seen. I don't have much table or floor space for the sandwiching part. This may be a game changer for me. Thank you so much!!
Thanks. One thing I should mention: leave at least 2 " extra backing and batting on all 4 sides. When you lay out the quilt top put it about an inch away from the bottom edge. Good luck. Quilting's a great hobby!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your time on this matter because I almost decided not to make a quilt for my mom. But you have given me the courage to attempt it. how so appreciate all the other little advice that I found in your video especially the one that I've heard about not getting the pins from the dollar store thank you again
@@sarahfrock9651 Sarah, I just watched the video again after seeing your comment. If you scroll down a little you will see a comment directing you to click on it and it will take you to the same video with better sound. I hope this helps you. I like to click on the cc at the bottom of the video and then I can read along with the person who is speaking. My hearing isn't what it used to be.
I like this method. I don’t have the floor space to layer a quilt of any size plus my back no longer goes for getting up and down off of the floor. Great to do on a table. I’m saving your video. Thank you for sharing this skill.
Newbie quilter here & I want to say Thank you Thank you Thank you!! The pool noodles are being clearanced at the dollar stores & I better get down here & grab some!! This looks a lot easier than what i was doing & no more air bubbles!!!!
This was excellent! I loved the tutorial, and was really surprised when you said that this is your first video. Don't change your style. This is a winner!
Thank you - you are a wonderful instructor. Your directions are clear and concise. I know I'll be watching this one again. I can't get down on the floor and was getting concerned about how I was going to be able to sandwich my quilt at home. So, thank you. (Now if you'd just move in next door or something so I could run over and ask you questions.......) I also lover your radios.
Hi, Beverly. Thanks. I just pinned a 40 x 60 quilt and my back STILL hurt, but not my knees! Ask me questions anytime. My husband is a radio buff. Have a nice day.
Thank you so very much for these instructions they are a great idea and simplifies the process nicely. I hope to see more information later I am a very beginner and do appreciate all the advice from experts like you. Thank you again.
What a wonderful tutorial. Seeing and hearing the instructions is very helpful, your instructions are easy to understand. Now I have to try this, it will be so much better than trying to lay the whole thing out flat and fighting the pieces.
This is brilliant! Gotta love pool noodles. Thank you for sharing! Added note...if you remove the selvage from the backing fabric, you won’t have any wrinkles.
I’m doing my first quilt, started three weeks ago with hand sewing. I’m maybe four months from this stage. This was extremely helpful to a very inexperienced learner. Thank you very much
This method is totally new to me. Your video was super helpful. You filmed in a way that was t gave good visibility of what you were doing, you speak clearly and in a friendly encouraging way, but without going off on tangents and confusing us. Well Done Ma'am !
I hate this part of quilting so much! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I tried it and it made the whole experience much more tolerable! Great video!
This was a really neat video! I will have to try. Currently I go over to a club that I’m a member of, and climb all over the floor. This looks much easier. Thanks for sharing it!
What a great presentation! Succinct yet detailed. You’re a lovely teacher. A while ago I saw a video about using pool noodles to create a quilt sandwich but the person rambled so and the teaching was a bit confusing. Congratulations on your first video!
Great video! Well explained, very clear and easy to understand. Had not seen this method of basting before, but will definitely be giving it a try. Wish I had watched this earlier, when pool noodles were easier to find in the stores! Great technique. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It was great , very clear, concise and informative. I’m off now to order some pool noodles. Thanks once again .

Sheron Bradley have you ever made your own basting spray?
@@chelseabailey4836 No! Do you know how? Please share if you do..
Wow, the idea of extending with a dowel is brilliant!
Sheron Bradley, I want to try this using basting spray. Are there any tutorials on using basting spray with the pool noodle method?
What a wonderful way to do a sandwich when minimal tabletop space is available. Thanks so much for doing the tutorial!
This is awesome. I have cats and this helped me to complete my quilt sandwich quickly without spending much time chasing cats or watching them watch me through the cat gate... lol. Also an awesome way to store my quilt sandwich until I complete the quilting on it! Thank you!!!
My cat also loves to HELP me!
Your first video???? You could have fooled me! This is a brilliant idea! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks!
Great idea, I think I will be doing in my own table now...don’t have to get a bigger table... thanks...

This is very helpful advise. No more taping the layers to the dining room floor...lol. I am off to the Dollar Tree for pool noodles.
Faith Moore
You think they still have them this time of year? I could several myself! Lol.
An update. I did already use this method. Oh my goodness. 100% easy to use this method. Easier to pin! I am sold on this way if sandwiching a quilt.
Wow. This is the best method I have seen.....thank you soooooo much. I will be at the dollar store tomorrow. And passing this on to my Quilting buds. Thank you so much,,,,,Claudia.❤️🇺🇸🇮🇹

AWESOME IDEA!! I think the noodles would work for storing the backing right from the ironing board!! THANKS SABINA!!
CaleanWsh, that is a great idea, too, especially since I have a couple of tops in progress and have to re-iron each time I get back to one!!!
I just went out and purchased every noodle the dollar store had!! :-D
I've been using a long piece of wood. Too heavy and awkward. Wish I'd seen this sooner. I'm buying pool noodles!
Thank you! I too am getting too old for floor crawling. I have a long dining table that will work swell for me. Also, I use a tacking gun with a plastic grid guide.

Nice, calm, quiet AND educational. Good job.

Great tip. Thank you for sharing. Blessings from Ohio.
I like this method. I don’t have the floor space to layer a quilt of any size plus my back no longer goes for getting up and down off of the floor. Great to do on a table. I’m saving your video. Thank you for sharing this skill.
Thanks. Stay well.
Newbie quilter here & I want to say Thank you Thank you Thank you!!
The pool noodles are being clearanced at the dollar stores & I better get down here & grab some!! This looks a lot easier than what i was doing & no more air bubbles!!!!
Very helpful video. I hope you make more videos. Very good teacher. Thanks!
This was excellent! I loved the tutorial, and was really surprised when you said that this is your first video. Don't change your style. This is a winner!
Thank you - you are a wonderful instructor. Your directions are clear and concise. I know I'll be watching this one again. I can't get down on the floor and was getting concerned about how I was going to be able to sandwich my quilt at home. So, thank you. (Now if you'd just move in next door or something so I could run over and ask you questions.......) I also lover your radios.
Hi, Beverly. Thanks. I just pinned a 40 x 60 quilt and my back STILL hurt, but not my knees! Ask me questions anytime. My husband is a radio buff. Have a nice day.
Thank you so very much for these instructions they are a great idea and simplifies the process nicely. I hope to see more information later I am a very beginner and do appreciate all the advice from experts like you. Thank you again.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I have limited space and this will help me tremendously!
Awesome tutorial it was very helpful. Short and to the point.
Thank you for this tutorial. It's so helpful. I hated doing quilt sandwich so will try this method.
Holy Cow! This is fabulous! Thank you so much!!! You are very clever and I am so happy to have found your video!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
What a wonderful tutorial. Seeing and hearing the instructions is very helpful, your instructions are easy to understand. Now I have to try this, it will be so much better than trying to lay the whole thing out flat and fighting the pieces.
Very well done!
I had never heard of this, but I’m intrigued.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing idea with us. This will change my life. Riding the sandwich now will be pleasurable. Kisses.
This is brilliant! Gotta love pool noodles. Thank you for sharing! Added note...if you remove the selvage from the backing fabric, you won’t have any wrinkles.
Thank you for presenting this demonstration in a professional manner. You were well organized, clear and precise. Congratulations on a job well done.
thanks and good luck
Great job I never would have guessed it was your first tutorial thank you I'll use that trick I got plenty of pool noodles
A realy helpful way to get it done! Thanks so much.
I’m doing my first quilt, started three weeks ago with hand sewing. I’m maybe four months from this stage. This was extremely helpful to a very inexperienced learner. Thank you very much
This method is totally new to me. Your video was super helpful. You filmed in a way that was t gave good visibility of what you were doing, you speak clearly and in a friendly encouraging way, but without going off on tangents and confusing us. Well Done Ma'am !
Wow! For a first video you did great! Very helpful tip. Loved it!!
Great tutorial. What an idea! I'm going to used this idea. You did a wonderful job. Thank you!
What an great idea, after quilting for over 30years this method has been an eye opener!
I can't take credit for the idea, but it sure it's definitely easier on the back and knees. Good luck!
I hate this part of quilting so much! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I tried it and it made the whole experience much more tolerable! Great video!
This was a really neat video! I will have to try. Currently I go over to a club that I’m a member of, and climb all over the floor. This looks much easier. Thanks for sharing it!
What a great presentation! Succinct yet detailed. You’re a lovely teacher. A while ago I saw a video about using pool noodles to create a quilt sandwich but the person rambled so and the teaching was a bit confusing. Congratulations on your first video!
Wow, what a great tip. Have been worried about how to sandwich a large quilt in a limited space. Thank you.
Great video! Well explained, very clear and easy to understand. Had not seen this method of basting before, but will definitely be giving it a try. Wish I had watched this earlier, when pool noodles were easier to find in the stores! Great technique. Thanks for sharing!
Brava!!! Thank you from.the bottom of my aching back!!! This is brillant!! Well done!!!
Very well done 👍 and amazing for your 1st video 👏thank you. best wishes Tracy 🇬🇧
