I've pinned my next quilt which will probably be called falling leaves. It's not terribly big It almost works as a tablecloth for our dinning table which seats 4-6 but it's a tad short at one end. This time when I laid out the layers my backing first and then batting I made sure to smooth things out really well before adding my quilt top. Using my curved safety pins I pinned generously about every 5-6 inches. I was very happy when I removed my quilt from the table to see how smooth and un-bunched the back was. Using my dinning table was a very easy and rewarding method this is the second time I will have basted my quilts this way and I am pleased with the results.
I apologize these photos are kinda blurry there's not very good natural light in the dinning area.
Here I had to take some photos under my lamps at my sewing table so you can better see.
And here's the back all nice and smooth.
I can't wait to start quilting this one...
Thanks for reading♥
