I bought that same frame with basting in mind as well. I tried doing one quilt on it and it was so time consuming loading, advancing, etc. The basting ended up terrible and I had to redo the whole quilt on the floor. I'm sure given time I would learn how to do all that with more ease and accuracy but it just seemed easier for now to go back to basting on the floor.

I also wasn't 100% impressed with how the frame folded up. It isn't as compact as it appears in the picture. My bed sits fairly high up off the floor and I still have to push down pretty hard on the frame to get it to go under. It scrapes along the top.

If you lived close by I'd let you borrow mine to try it out and see if you liked it. I wish we all could do that with products before we spent the money!
