I recently saw a Moda Bake Shop Tip that someone used cookie sheets to stack their quilt block pieces on so they could carry it to their sewing machine. A friend of mine saw on a blog somewhere where a woman covered foam core boards with flannel (or batting) and glued a fabric binding all around the edges. She showed our applique group how to make these boards. So that got me thinking...

Thank you so much for your comment. I appreciate every one. If you do not hear a reply back from me, it could be that you are a no-reply, or that Google/Blogger has changed something (again!) making it impossible to respond back to you. If you want a reply because you asked a question, please fill out the Contact Form located on the right side of the blog and I will respond to you that way. Thank you for stopping by! I was forced to add comment moderation due to huge number of SPAM!

Very nifty idea! Thanks for sharing it with u.
ReplyDeleteHi what a great tip thanks for sharing. Thanks also for commenting on my blog, I took off my settings to be a no-reply blogger as all comments were coming through to my email and I started to get spam - I now rely on people clicking on my blogger id from the comment and then either commenting on my blog or using the Contact Me button on my blog - much safer! If you still want to class me as a no reply blogger thats fine as I know that this takes more time. Thanks for letting me know though.
ReplyDeleteHi me again - ignore the comment above about me taking my no reply off I have now put it back on - thought I might as well for this hop and the next one at least! Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteGood tip Daryl. I didn't even know there was such a need for a block carrier but I can see that the next time I'm trying to be sure I sew a block in proper order, this carrier will come to mind!
ReplyDeleteI love this tip! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea, and I will definitely try it. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI had a pile of 10 or so foam core boards my daughter had from art school long ago. I used 6 of them by covering them with flannel and hanging them for a design wall. I think with one of them I'll cut it in half, cover it and trim it and give one to my daughter and one for me. Great idea. I'm working on a swoon quilt right now and this is a great idea for playing with the colors and values for this quilt.
ReplyDeleteI saw the original cookie sheet idea, too, and, while a great idea, I don't have that many sheets... your's is a great blend, and takes up less space... thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Daryl, I'm always having problems where to put my pieces.
