QuiltE......I can't imagine doing this on the wall unless a very small quilt. As someone said, it will stretch and won't the basting spray get on the floor? You must let us know your results......PLEASE....
Take a look at the video ... I think she has answered those questions well.
I'll start with something smaller first to see how I feel about it.

I am fortunate that I have a huge design wall ... and would use so I could pin for stability. Things stick to mine pretty good, though I would still pin when doing this, to be sure it stays still and straight.



DottyMo ... as mentioned above, the churches and/or community rooms here either do not allow this or are very expensive to rent. So I don't have that option. Wish I did and envy those who do!
