I finish 90% of my collage quilts this way. It would have been helpful to show how you attached the corners. That is the hardest part. Once I have attached the quilt to the canvas I insert it into a canvas floater frame. That makes the project much more professional looking and gives it a better finished look.
ohh, clever and inspired: Where did you acquire the purple suction cup ruler holder, please? Faster to adjust, cleaner (No fingers) and safer. Yes, an electric stapler would be "better" and more consistent.
Quick tip with the stapler: I like to place the heel of my non-dominant hand on the top of the stapler to brace it against the frame while I squeeze the handle with my dominant hand. This helps stabilize the stapler so it doesn’t feel wobbly, and it also eliminates some of that gap (reducing the amount of tapping you have to do with the hammer). This is a cool idea! I’m eager to try it.
I watched the video because I can't figure how to do the corners but you skipped that. Please consider adding onto this video how to cleanly wrap the corners.
Please explain that one side is stapled then the opposite side tightly from the center out. The corners should be mitered. And that's a ball peen hammer! Really, women, know your tools!

What a great idea! It looks like fun

Looks easy for any quilt about that size. Nice alternative. Thanks for sharing. 😊😊😊

Could you show how you did your corners?
We made a new video! ua-cam.com/video/ZdL1ZD6_PO4/v-deo.html
Would some weighted items, even books, in the center help to hold the quilt sandwich in place while stapling? I’m a clutch when stapling 🙄
Is there tutorials for pin cushion
I would have liked to know how to fold the corners.

Could you use baste spray to hold the frame in place?
I'm not sure a 505 basting spray would be enough. Let me know if you find a product that works!

Oops. I sure was hoping you would show how to make the corners neat. oh, well.

I believe that is a ball peen hammer. Unsure of spelling. Sorry and love the tutorial.
