Finally! A link that shows what I have often wondered. How DO you link those things together? Thanks for sharing.

I am going to try this on something small to see how it goes. I can see that using the template would line everything up correctly.

I did one without the tool and wish I had had it!

Could you explain more about doing it without the tool ? How would it have helped you? I wonder because the tool is a little expensive (for me anyway).

If you want to use this method, I found the tools on line and the back is 9.5" and the center peice is 7.5" so that is a 2" margin all around the batting to allow for folding as shown on the video. I am making mine 12.5 and 10.5 and see
how it works. Have a lot of print materal I want to use in larger peices of 10.5" and backing and quilt that rather than the strip method

Strips are not as easy to do, but still better than trying to quilt a full-king on a reg. sewing machine. This lookes even easier. Have the Cotton theory quilding book and that is complicated for sure. Maybe once you did it it would be easier. But this looks great.
