    VIDEO - Sewing Baffles - Top Quilt

    Hey there, guys and gals! I wanted to post the process I used to sew the baffles on to my top quilt for all us visual learners out there.

    It's nothing revolutionary, but I have yet to find a video documenting the process for regular linear baffles. If you want a Karo setup, youtube is full of videos, but nothing for us regular TQ & UQ builders.

    Enjoy!

    That's strange. It worked for me just now. Here's a link in case anyone is having issues.

    FYI you can use the little film icon at the top of the edit window to embed videos like so:



    It works better than the older style YOUTUBE tags. iOS devices often have problems with embedded videos using the YOUTUBE tags because of the way vbulletin presents the object to the mobile device.

    I finished the quilt this past Saturday, and I am so excited to use it this Labor Day weekend. It came in under 2 pounds. There's 17 tubes/16baffles, and I added a piece of digital acu on the footbox to add some color. (it's solid black Momentum90) I'll try to take a few photos and post a thread on the build and results soon.
