I starch my backing. I use a banquet table or two for my quilt sandwich. They say you can
use a card table if that's all you have available. I use bull dog clips all around and thread baste.
I am not a pinner or sprayer. Always start in the middle and work my way out. If the quilt is
bigger, after I've basted the center I move the sandwich to one corner, put the clips back making sure everything is taut and then baste away.
