Sharon, the ocean quilt is amazing! I am always in awe of your applique quilts. The quilting gives it all such great movement too.

I have spray basted only one quilt, and this was when I had joined a weekend class, The room had a HUGE table, at least 12 foot square, made from wall boards placed onto trestles. I have done another on the kitchen floor, and used the curved safety pins. Too hard now, so I need to find another method. Have you ever used the board slats?The octopus fabric is a winner, ” Purple Rosette” for sure. Then the whole quilt is truly stunning.

Hello,
Well that baby quilt is not only cute but it goes with your brand/name of your website so nicely! I love how you quilted it with the movement in the waves. Ugg, I’m sorry you are fighting bronchitis. It always takes me forever to get over the cough, but you’ll have it out of the way for the holidays. I do not spray baste my quilts, although I did use it once on a table runner. I use my kitchen island all the time. I lay out the backing and batting, and iron the fabric side so that it is smooth (not too hot, no steam). Then I flip it over, inspect for wrinkles and when I’m happy I put the quilt top on. I pin a lot, and then take it back to my sewing machine and get busy. Good luck with getting yours – I think the longarm basting is a great idea! ~smile~ Roseanne
