Materials:
- 3 pool noodles
- quilt project
- safety pins
- placemats
Directions:
Step 1
Take your backing fabric and put it right side down on your table. Next, take a pool noodle and center it on the fabric. Secure the edges of the fabric to the pool noodle with pins, then start rolling it up as smoothly as you can. Once done rolling, stick another pin so it doesn’t unwrap. Set it aside. Next, take the batting, lay it down, then center the pool noodle. Secure the edges with pins, then roll it up. Pin it and set it aside. Lastly, lay your quilt top facing up, then take the last pool noodle and roll it up just like the previous fabric.

Step 2
Now, take the rolled backing fabric, take out the pin, and start to unroll about 18 inches, lining it up to the edge of your table. Next, take your batting, line it up center on your backing, and unroll it, smoothing it out. After this, take the quilt top, center it on the batting, line the edges up, and unroll it. Once done, slide the placemat underneath all the fabrics, then start pinning the sandwich. Unroll all the fabrics gently, smoothing out everything, as you go.
