I like the idea that it is reversible, because my grandkids like it so that whatever side is out doesn’t matter and no one will tell them the are using the wrong side up.
Looking forward to learning how to do this.
Wouldn’t it be easier to make small markings in the back of each layer so you can see the creasing better? A suggestion.

Great video! This would work well if you’re using a sewing machine to do the quilting or are quilting by hand. Would really like to see a video on how to load a reversible quilt on a longarm.
Love the idea, but how would you do this if you spray baste?
Hi April. If you prefer to spray baste- you can still use the same technique and work in small sections at a time when it comes to spraying the adhesive. This way you can make sure an area is lined up correctly and make adjustments if needed before basting the whole top.
