I push two banquet tables together and use lots of binder clips all around
then hand-baste a la Sharon Schamber. Works great. :D

I layer mine on our king-size bed and spray baste. To protect the area from over spray I cover the bed and head board with a big flannel sheet. The sheet also helps hold the backing and/or quilt top in place. With a little practice one can completely layer a king sized quilt in 20-30 minutes and no crawling on floor. Any spray baste will do. I buy the June Taylor from Joann's and use the coupons.

If you use the longer Quilting pins to hang it on the wall (pins in at a downward angle) the holes aren't noticable.

I, too, use June Taylor but is 505 any better. It was mentioned on the tutorial. I have a clubhouse where I live so I COULD use the tables but they don't want people spraying glue there.... carpet issues I suppose! Maybe people allergic to the smell and chemicals. And I am always in toooo much of a hurry to BASTE! Thanks again for all your suggestions. Will try them all and find the one that is JUST RIGHT for me!
