Quick Hunters Star Throw - Part 3

Sandwiching Quilt

You will need a backing fabric of at least 88 by 64 inches, but a bit larger would be better.
  1. Place pressed backing right side down on a flat surface large enough to lay flat; tape in place at sides, then corners.
  2. Lay batting on top of backing and smooth wrinkles; tape in place at sides, then corners. (If using slippery batting, spray baste to baking and top.)
  3. Put pressed quilt on top right side up.
  4. Smooth borders and blocks square, pushing excess toward middle. Quilting will take up slack and quilt will hang better.
  5. Pin baste 3 to 4 inches apart in quarters down length and width. Finish pin basting each quarter 3 to 4 inches apart.
  6. Quilt as desired.
Next time we'll finish up with the binding.
