14 in a package
Price $ 6.75
1.  Clamp the backing to the table wrong side up.
2.  Smooth the batting over the backing.
3.  Smooth the quilt top over these layers to make the
quilt sandwich.   The clamps are keeping
the backing
smooth and wrinkle free.
4.  Begin basting the quilt using quilter's safety pins or
needle and thread.   Water soluble  thread is a real time
saver

You can also use a 5/8" or 3/4" piece of plywood
instead of the table shown above.
The Basting Clamps can also be used
for wall hangings and miniature quilts.  
Use any piece of wood 5/8" to 3/4" cut  2
or 3 inches larger than your wall
hanging.  Using  the same directions  as
for a larger quilt.  If you make a lot of
wall hangings or miniature quilts and
make them a similar size then you will be
able to use the same board for basting.   
You will be able to baste them easily
using the basting clamps.  They keep
the backing smooth and wrinkle free.
