QUILTING TIP - Monday, July 05, 2004

Use Your Noodle When Packing Up Your Quilt

Diana Tackett of Fort Myers, Florida has a great trick for getting a quilt ready to go without wrinkles or creases.



Diana writes:

I use one of those foam swimming noodles to roll my quilt projects on. The noodles are around six feet long, and you can find them everywhere in the summer.

You can cut a noodle to the length you need, then pin your project to it. Roll it up, then pin the loose edge to secure it. This works great for transporting a project to and from class.

Great idea! Thanks, Diana. The noodles are dense foam but very light weight and flexible enough to fit into small cars easily.
