So helpful! I loathe basting anything larger than a wall hanging and totally have been procrastinating my latest project. This got it all done with none of the puckers I usually get. Thank you!
Thankyou for your time taken to share. Love the honest comment that your quilting is so not perfect . Ha !!! Me too . But totally functional . And I seem to have a queue of people wanting them !!! I love to make something out of nothing , so consequently haunt the op shops for cotton sheets , old blankets and duvet covers . Godbless from Pat nz
Carol, you do the exact same process for a narrow table. Do the size of your table, then slide it over and do the next section. It works in both directions.
Hey Codi, my husband made some very lightweight tables for me for my sewing room, so I can easily move them around to where I need them at the moment. They measure 2' x 4' and are very handy!
I'm not totally sure what you mean with batting first, but while setting up and between transitions (when you pull the quilt to the next spot), it's important to smooth them in order of backing first, then batting, and quilt top last. Hopefully, that answers your question, and if not let me know!
Relative to the quilt it is. When you haven’t got enough room for your whole quilt you have to do it in sections as demonstrated in this video. This is how I did it. I clamped. Both sides at a time using large bull clips.
@@cassieoz1702 We can work with that! What I have is 2 tables pushed together, but if I'm down to only using one...I will still clamp the quilt in the same way, but I will baste it in columns. So I'll get the width of the table all down one side done, then I'll shift the quilt over and start back at the top and go down again. I just repeat as many times as needed to get the full width of the quilt. I really hope that makes sense and is helpful!

Thanks, very helpful for using a long but narrow table which I have.

Great video. Very helpful for this newbie.
That’s a large table in my world
Great idea and video
Thank you soooo much- so helpful!!!!
This is wonderful, thank you for sharing! what kind of tables are you using?

can you do the batting first and then start over with the quilt top?
I'm not totally sure what you mean with batting first, but while setting up and between transitions (when you pull the quilt to the next spot), it's important to smooth them in order of backing first, then batting, and quilt top last. Hopefully, that answers your question, and if not let me know!
Thank you!
Thank you great I hated doing it on my floor it killed my back
This is excellent! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the instructions. The longarm costs a fortune. I am definitely going to try this.
This is a great video! Thank you for sharing what you learned. My friend, Rachel Flesher put me on to you. :-)
Thanks, Denise! Rachel is one of my favorite people!
Check out using pool noodles to make your quilt sandwich. I think it might be easier. Thanks for the tutorial.
Deborah Young yes much easier using pool noodles
What kind of batting are you using?
I usually use Warm & Natural. Sometimes I'll use the Pellon brand from Joann's.
what if your quilt is also wider than your table top is long?
I do the same process! I go down the length, then pull the quilt over and do the rest.
Am i the only person who doesnt think this is a small table?

@@Elkycreates it's still wider than the quilt and much longer than any table most folks would have access to.
The point of the video is teaching the technique. I do cover how to adapt the technique to smaller tables 🙂
@@summerleequilts my most common problem is the quilt being too wide for the table, not the quilt being too long. It's my biggest cause of ufos

NOT a small table!
This table is very long.
Yep, I'm using two small tables put together, but the method I show works for any size table. :)
Thank you for this tutorial!!!!
