How To Make A Design Wall:

I love this method! I've been mostly spray basting for a little while but using the ruler and ironing after is a game changer. Thanks, Christa!
Will definitely try ironing after spray basting. Didn’t know it was a thing to do.
Dear Christa
I started quilting 5 years ago, and in the begining I gluebasted, but it always crinkled up on me, so I have used pins for years. Until I resently saw this film.
I had 2 quilts lying I had to baste and quilt, and gave your method a try. Now I am never going back to pins!!
By the way. I just iron the quilts on the folding table after gluing. No problem with the heat on the table, even when I use high heat, the plastic does not even get warm.
Thank you

I'm so happy to hear it's successful for you!
This method works really well - I've done it before, but came back for a refresher as it's been awhile. Thanks, Christa for sharing your experience and wisdom with all of us. It's generous of you and I truly appreciate it!
My pleasure! I'm glad it was helpful.
I LOVE THIS SCRAPPY BACK ON THE LARGE QUILT! YES, I AM YELLING ENTHUSIASTICALLY!
Yay for scrappy backs!!
I cannot believe what a difference this made in my quilt sandwich! I’m going to use this method from now on. Thanks Christa!
I'm so glad to hear it was successful for you!
I have never pinned again after I tried spray batting. But I had no idea I could iron it!! I'll do that with my next quilt. Thank you!
It really makes a difference: you can squish all the layers together, get out all the wrinkles and set the glue with the heat.
The design wall and ruler smoothing method worked fabulously! So much better than crawling around on the floor, which is the way I have spray basted all my quilts, until this last one. My quilt sandwiches have never been this smooth. Thank you so much for the tutorial!
Thanks for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
You’ve convinced me to give this a try 😊 save my back 😊save my fingers from pins 😊 seems like a win win winner 🏆 thank you
Yay! Let me know how it goes.
Good morning from Canada! I've grabbed my hand sewing and I'm happy to watch you!
I'm so happy to hear that! Enjoy!
I never thought of using my design wall to do this. A game changer for sure!
I will give it another try. I never ironed mine, and that may have been my problem.
It could also be the basting spray. I've only had good results with the 505 brand.
Using a ruler to flatten the sandwich is a great idea! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Christa, I never thought of using my design board to assemble spray basted quilts, plus ironing the pieces makes total sense!
it works great!!
I’ve been looking for a sane way to baste my quilts & machine quilt them at home! This process is awesome, makes so much sense now!
I'm glad you enjoyed watching!
I love your method!!! I watch all of your videos and craftsy classes. Your advice is so useful and practical!
Thanks for watching!
What a great tip for basting a quilt. Never thought to use a design wall, definitely trying this.
I'm glad you enjoyed watching!
Great inspiring video and love your quilt designs and fabrics ❤
Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much. I just about have a quilt ready to baste. I will definitely try this. I think spraying the entire 3 pieces is going to make a huge difference. I can not wait to try it!
It's so much easier to do this way!
Christa I always struggled with basting of any method because I thought you had to doe one section of 3layers at one time. What a game changer to know you could spray everything then assemble. Thank you I'm a fan forever now
I'm glad it was helpful for you!
You make it look so easy Christa, I'm definitely going to give it a go!
Great! Let me know how you like it!
Thanks for doing this. Really helpful for me to spray bast my first time.
I'm glad you like it. This technique works really well!
I tried it and it worked great! A few things I would pay more attention to next time are really working to get the batting smoothed over the backing so it's nice and flat, and not bearing down with the iron too much. I had to stick my arm under the backing while ironing to get the wrinkles out. Thanks for the tutorial!
This method really is a game changer for my process.
I learned this from you in an earlier video. I finally tried it last month and loved it. Design wall basting is my new go-to.
I'm so glad to hear that!!
Christa, thanks for the detailed video. I've been hesitant to try spray basting, but as you demonstrated, it is definitely the way to go. Will give it a try.
It's definitely a game changer!!
Sounds terrific ! Thanks
I have spray basted before but did everything on the floor. This method looks much easier especially on my knees. I'll give it a try on my next quilt project. Thank you!
I'm so glad you like it! Best of luck and let me know how it goes!
Looks like a great method. If I only had a back yard . . . .
You can do this anywhere you have the room to set up. A basement, or a park works great, too!
Love this method, ❤️ I think this is my go to now, thx for this tutorial 😊
Glad you like it!
Wonderful! I use basting spray, but will definitely use your tips for my next project!
I'm so glad to hear that!
I never knew you could iron with basting spray. I will try this. Thank you
You are welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Great method!❤
I spray baste and iron. Good to have someone else who does it too
Yes!! It makes a huge difference!
Great demo. THANK YOU!
My pleasure!
Looks great, will have to try this!
Please do!
Thank you this was very helpful!
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
This is just amazing thank you.
You're very welcome!
Ty very helpful. I've used spray baste but I see I've done some parts wrong or incomplete lol. Ready to give it another try 😉👍💕🇨🇦
I do it this way for every quilt I make :-)
Thank you I’m for sure trying this
That's great! Let me know how it goes!
Thank you for this, Christa. Is it ok to iron 100% wool batting (Dream Wool) once everything is sandwiched together?
I don’t have a large ironing board and I have a design board material on my wall. Would it work to iron while it’s still on the wall?
I don't see why not. Give it a try!
I just got a design wall based on your TH-cam. It is amazing! I love it so much. One question with this basting process: when you put your backing on the wall after spraying outside, I see that you are smoothing it out with a large ruler. Not sure how that works with the sticky part facing out. ??
I'm glad you enjoyed this! The ruler works great. It gets a little of the stickiness on it, so I use a separate ruler just for basting and clean it with warm soapy water whenever it gets too sticky.
@@ChristaQuilts Thanks so much!! Happy New Year. ☺️
I always thought that the quilt police told us not to iron a quilt! Does it make it noticeably flatter? Thanks
I'm on the run from the quilt police because they don't like a lot of the things I teach, LOL!! Ironing helps set the glue so everything sticks together. But be sure to practice on a small test piece, first!
I only spray baste these days...too old to crawl on the floor
I agree - I can't ever go back to pin basting, LOL!
