How to make a Design Board Video! (Friday Foto Fun #74)
Happy Friday! I am trying something different today with a video blog! I was trying to edit my Facebook Live post from Wednesday to make the tutorial for making a design board, but my audio and video was not syncing up. I decided to re-tape the instructions on how to make your own design boards. Enjoy!
To purchase pre-made design boards, go to FatQuarterShop.com.
To make your own Design Boards, you will need the following:
- Foam Board
- Hot Glue Gun
- Batting the size of the board
- Spare/Extra binding strips!
Basic instructions:
- Cut the Foam Board to the desired size.
- Hot glue the edges of the batting to the foam board, trim any excess batting overhanging the foam board.
- Use the binding strips to make double fold bias strips. Sew a zigzag stitch down the middle of the strip to secure the edges on the inside.
- Hot glue the strip around the edge of the foam board!
If you actually want to see me make the design board, join my Facebook Group to access the Hidden Stars Weeks 9&10 video. It's the first 15 minutes of the video that I make the design board.
So what do you guys think of the video blog? I'm wanting to incorporate more videos into my posts, so I'm starting small!

Hey that was awsome! Your directions are so easy and straight forward. I’ve watched many a video on how to make one and never felt the want afterwards (the videos were all way to confusing lol) but your is easy and fast!
I’m in lol
Great idea, Sherry. I plan to make some of these. I normally move one block at a time from cutting table to my machine. This will be much more efficient.
I need a design board now! I like your idea.
Hi Sherry,
I’ve been meaning to make these for awhile! You have enspired me to “get – er- done!”
After I finish procrastinating! 🙂
Thanks for the video … you make it look sew simple!
