Backing for larger piece. Why are these backings on the wall? Simple, I baste all my quilts standing up. Saves the back and knees lots of aches and pains. Tonight I will cut the batting and pin to the top of the backing and just let it rest until tomorrow. Next, I will pin the quilt top to the two layers and thread baste the three layers together. Yeah, I know so old-fashioned but I take these with me when I travel so I can quilt on the road. Thread basting is the only secure way when you are as rough as I am on these pieces. Actually got something accomplished related to quiltmaking. Let's see what tomorrow brings.
