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.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
