Love your quilt. What did you use to clip the quilt top to the table? Tablecloth holders?

Beautiful quilt! I use my queen size bed- better than the floor, which I've done also!

I think we have the bullnose edge???? Anyway, we got the clips at Home Depot. DH finally convinced me he knew what he was talking about, haha!

I use binder clips which work great too.

My back hurts when I cut, etc. on my dining room table. Still looking for a solution that would be cheap. We live in a condo with no basement. Also, would picnic table clips work as well?
