Pin Basting Made Easy
Watch How to Baste Both a Small and Large Quilt!
There are many methods for basting a quilt and it may take a bit of trail and error to find the one that works best for you. In the following video Rob from Man Sewing demonstrates a simple method that produces a quilt ready to quilt by machine.
Rob starts with a small quilt and goes over the basics of layering up. He then goes on to baste a large quilt on a table (not the floor!). Rob bastes with pins and shows how and where to place them.
Whether you’re basting your first quilt, looking for a new method to try or just want to review the basics, you’re sure to appreciate all the valuable information Rob provides.
