girls, girls, girls!!
I know it is daunting! A tight roll is what is needed here. I use "BananaClips" for rolling my quilts to get them as close as I can to the "wall" on my machine. these can be found in all sizes, suitible for small quilts to big quilts
they are available in the hair care section of most drug and variety stores.
They are much cheaper than the bicycle clips sold for this purpose
let me know what you think or if they work for you!!
